We have long sought to produce a Pinot Noir from Keefer Ranch fruit and when Marcy called us late in the 2005 harvest and offered fruit, well we couldn’t turn her down. We happily brought in 3 tons of fruit - 1 ton each of Dijon clones 777, Pommard 5, and 1 ton of Swiss clone 23. The clones were vinified separately and the small amount of wine we have tastes extraordinary. Keefer Ranch is becoming a mainstay in our lineup and we hope to get close to 10 tons of fruit for the 2006 harvest.
Keefer Ranch is located in the Green Valley appellation in the southwestern corner of the Russian River Valley. The 30 acre vineyard is located on gently rolling hills in an area known to have some of the coolest weather in the Russian River Valley. Morning and evening fog, gentle afternoon breezes, cool overnight temperatures and the warm afternoon sun produce grapes with terrific natural acidity combined with a combination of elegance and intensity of fruit. Marcy and her son Craig Strehlow grow some of the best Pinot Noir grapes in Sonoma County and we are proud to continue our association with them and their vineyard.
