The 2019 is a beautiful wine; pure and balanced with compelling aromas of roasted lemon, kiwi, and a hint of vanilla. The palate is layered with indulgent flavors of pineapple, lemon curd, and a touch of salinity, which leads to a long, elegant finish with just a wisp of butterscotch at the very end. It's fantastic on its own, but would also be a fabulous accompaniment to your favorite seafood dishes.

A vibrant, fresh and delightful pinot with wild raspberries, sliced mushrooms, lemon zest, fresh herbs, violets and peppercorns on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins and bright acidity. So elegant and transparent. Fantastic value. Drink now or hold. - James Suckling

Margo, named after Colene’s great granddaughter, is comprised of selected vineyard blocks and barrels from our Estate.
A rich, polished nose of baked blueberries, cassis, vanilla and chocolate orange. It’s medium-to full-bodied with ripe, velvety tannins. Plush and flavorful. Drink now or hold. - James Suckling
Named after Victoria’s daughter and Colene’s granddaughter, Adriane is an estate cuvée composed of specifically selected barrels that possess deep, concentrated flavors and a persistent finish.
A bit brooding at this point but still shows plenty of structure and expression, offering floral raspberry, crushed stone and dark spice flavors that finish with medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2029. - Tim Fish

Named after Victoria’s daughter and Colene’s granddaughter, Adriane is an estate cuvée composed of specifically selected barrels that possess deep, concentrated flavors and a persistent finish.
This unfolds slowly, with expressive raspberry and pomegranate flavors that draw in accents of crushed stone and savory bay leaf, building toward broad-shouldered but refined tannins. Drink now through 2030. — Tim Fish, Wine Spectator

Victoria is Colene Clemens’ daughter and our co-founder. Designed to represent the highest expression of the Colene Clemens Estate in each vintage, this stunning pinot noir is artfully blended from a small number of our very best barrels and most distinguished vineyard blocks.
Deep and densely structured, but the intensity of the cherry and pomegranate flavors suggests a bright future, with accents of crushed stone and rose petal that build toward broad-shouldered tannins. Hands off for now. Best from 2022 through 2030. — Tim Fish, Wine Spectator
