Quartz Description

Small production of Pinot Noir from coastal mountains vineyards in the Casablanca Valley, 14 miles from the Pacific Ocean with direct exposure to the cool marine climate. Having spent years in California as a winemaker, it reminds me to the landscapes of Coastal Sonoma. The soils here are mainly granitic with high presence of Quartz under a layer of sand and red clay, tainting the quartz in a red/orange color…Red Quartz – Pinot Noir is a unique wine coming from this special location.

The grapes are hand picked by local farmers and their families rather earlier in the season looking for a fresher style; the winemaking process is simple and with low intervention. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks and after is aged with selected neutral French oak for almost 6 months. The results is a crafted Pinot Noir with great character, representative of the variety and its origin. The evolution of this wine in the bottle should generate complex and delicious red fruits flavors, like cherries and strawberry with the time. You can save this wine for the next 3-5 years.
