I'm one of the few winemakers making single-vineyard wines. It's a challenge. In my case, obviously, an irresistible challenge. It exemplifies everything that attracted me to winemaking in the first place. I love to take the grapes from a particular site and let them show me different possibilities in the varietal, to make a wine in which the subtleties of the individual vineyard come through - a wine, you might say, with both a first and last name. I not only do not add other wines, I don't add yeast. Each wine is fermented with the natural range of native yeasts found in the vineyard. Since I can't fall back on blending different wines, it puts the onus squarely on myself to make each vineyard sing year after year. It's a solo performance - no hiding the baritones in the choir. I don't pile on the oak and malolactic fermentation. I don't make huge butterbombs. Instead, it's a careful balance - in which high notes sparkle but nothing is overdone and nothing is lost - that gives my wines a definite family resemblance. Visit the Paul Hobbs website.

Dense black plum in color, this graceful and elegant pinot noir from Larry Hyde’s vineyard is aromatic with violets, sage and blueberry. The palate, rich with dusty, brooding earthiness, opens slowly to impressions of ripe currant, blackberry and jammy black fruits. A lengthy finish is punctuated with brambly notes and ... more

Produced from a superior small section of rocky, red volcanic soils at high elevation, it is deep garnet in color and fragrant with bold, ripe red berries, cassis, red licorice and sage.
