"...it's a tour de force in Pinot Noir from California."
-Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate

With a focus on California’s most unique and expressive plots of land, Rhys Vineyards has developed some of the most compelling and distinct Pinot Noir in the state. With vineyard sites located in a variety of geologically differing locations in both the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Anderson Valley, Rhys is able to provide a diverse range of cellar-worthy, single-vineyard Pinot Noir. The winery also prides themselves in minimal intervention in their viticultural and winemaking techniques so that their wines show an evidence of terroir and particular style.

Tasting Notes

WA95
More lean and racy than the Apline Vineyard, the 2012 Chardonnay Horseshoe Vineyard has thrilling Chablis-like minerality and green citrus to go with lots of lemon curd, mint and hints of sappy flowers. Not quite as broad shouldered as the Alpine Vineyard, yet just as pure, precise and layered, this is another thrilling Chardonnay from this team that will have 10-15 years (or more) of longevity.
