On a stunning hillside vineyard located northwest of Philo, Savoy's Pinot Noir grapes develop intense flavor over a growing season lengthened by the cooling maritime influence that funnels through the Anderson Valley. With a complex patchwork of clonal selections, each block is farmed to its own specific needs. Hand-picked in the early morning and trucked to the cellar while the fruit is cold allows for optimum handling and whole berry integrity.

Concentrated ruby in color with a crimson core. The focused nose is clean and austere with an aromatic cornucopia of cranberry, crushed sweet raspberry, porcini mushroom, leather, and star anise. A dense welcoming entry with an effusive, luscious mouthfeel and tantalizing elegance carry through the palate. Balanced acidity and opulent tannin make cellaring attractive, yet also showing its stride with decant now.

“This is also quite restrained and cool with impressive elegance and purity to the red cherry, raspberry and spice-infused nose. The textured and lush flavors are generous yet refined with excellent depth of material, all wrapped in a balanced, dusty, sappy and ever-so-slightly austere finish. This is a really lovely effort that is both classy and stylish.” —Alan Meadows

“Vivid ruby. Penetrating perfume of cherry, blackberry and fresh flowers. Ripe, sappy and sweet, with firm acidity giving tension and lift to its sweet dark fruit flavors. Shows a tactile quality in the mid-palate and picks up spiciness with air. The pure dark fruit is lifted by blood orange and peppery spices on the very long, sweet finish. This benefits a lot from aeration. ” — Josh Raynolds

“Revealing abundant aromas of Asian spice, blue and red fruits, spring flowers and earth, the lighter styled 2009 Pinot Noir Savoy is the most delicate and elegant of these 2009 Pinots. ” —Robert Parker
