2022 Scar of the Sea, Pinot Noir Bassi Vineyard, San Luis Obispo County, USA
$49.99
The 2021 Bassi Vineyard Pinot Noir is produced from 22 year old Dijon Clone vines at the Bassi Vineyard, located on the hillsides of Avila Valley, 1 mile from Avila Beach. The vineyard is farmed by Ben Taylor with organic practices and it is in transition to biodynamic certification. This bottling is a unique snapshot of coastal California, some of the closest vines to the Pacific Ocean in California. The fruit was fermented with native yeast and 70% whole-cluster. The wine was pressed once dry in our wooden basket press then aged for 10 months in neutral french oak barrels.
