Fiancetto’s sourced this brillant Pinot from the Redwood Ridge Vineyard, a cool, coastal site tucked among redwoods near the tiny community of Annapolis in northern Sonoma County. Just a few miles from the Pacific, this vineyard lives under the spell of fog, wind, and long, slow ripening seasons. Its Goldridge sandy loam soils—famed for their drainage and minerality—yield concentrated berries with bright acidity and layered flavor. The area is home to some of Sonoma’s most admired growers, including Peay and Putnam, and it’s quietly become one of California’s top sources of intricate, age-worthy Pinot Noir.
