Organic. 100% Pinot Noir. In 2019, Rootdown acquired Cole Ranch in Mendocino county. At 457m in elevation, Cole Ranch rests between the valley floor of Ukiah and Anderson Valley. Originally planted in 1973 to 55 acres, becoming its own AVA in the 80’s--the smallest in the country--Cole Ranch has become a sought-after vineyard for its organically-farmed, high-quality fruit. Hand-harvested, 100% destemmed, native yeast ferment in an old open-top oak tank. To minimize tannin and to boost aromatics, the Pinot Noir saw only one pumpover per day until dry. After press, elevage is in 80% neutral barrels and 20% once-used French oak.
