This historic property consists of three different ranches that straddle Westside Road. Grapes from Bacigalupi Vineyards have supplied a vast array of wineries with the fruit they need to make outstanding Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Zinfandel for 65 years. We are honored to be added to this list. The family-owned property is farmed by John and Pam Bacigalupi, who live on the land and are its heart and soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e2023 was our third year working with fruit from Bacigalupi Vineyards and it couldn’t have been more different than the first two. The 2023 crop was average size and we had a cool growing season, especially at harvest. We harvested from two different blocks at Bacigalupi’s Frost Ranch in 2023. The Wente selection block was picked 2 weeks later than in 2022 and the Pommard clone block was picked in October–a rare occurrence at Frost Ranch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eThe wine was aged in French oak barrels (33% new) for 10 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e150 cases were bottled unfined and unfiltered on July 15, 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eAlcohol: 14.5%, pH: 3.62, T.A. 5.1 g\/L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe 2023 Bacigalupi Pinot Noir showcases the fruit intensity found in Russian River Valley Pinot Noir along with a subtle earthiness. The aromatics are a complex mélange of rhubarb, and black cherry, with a dash of cracked pepper. The silky texture opens up to flavors of strawberry preserves, and cinnamon raspberry.
