WS:93’-Zeros in on a tight core of vivid dark berry, with touches of wild berry, raspberry and blueberry shaded by creamy oak. Gains velocity and depth, ending with a long, persistent finish. Drink now through 2022.

Some say you can gauge a vineyard’s quality potential from the quality of its first vintage. The first vintage from Koplen was out of this world. Our first crop of fruit from the Koplen Vineyard was in 2002 - we harvested a whopping 1 1/2 tons of fruit from this 5 acre vineyard. The fruit all went into the 2002 Russian River Pinot Noir. We became so enamored with the early potential of this vineyard’s quality (and the dedication and passion to which owner/vineyard manager Dennis Koplen has to growing the best Pinot Noir grapes) that we decided early to produce a vineyard designate wine. Dennis refers to the vines as his girls and it is evident in the care he takes nurturing these vines.
The Koplen Vineyard is a 5 acre vineyard, planted all to Dijon clone 667, in the middle of the Russian River Valley AVA. The vineyard is located on the east side of Olivet Lane on a fairly low lying area. The vineyard is probably our warmest vineyard location and produces a deeply concentrated and complex Pinot Noir with classic Russian River characteristics of dark cherry and cola.
