2023 August West Graham Family Vineyard, Russian River Valley   

2023 was our latest harvest at Graham Family Vineyard in the 20 years we have been producing Pinot from this spectacular site in the Russian River Valley. The cold and rainy winter weather lasted through the month of March, and the vines didn't come out of their winter hibernation until early April. From that point on, the growing season progressed slowly, and we finally brought in Graham Pinot on October 13 and October 19, a full month later than normal. Our 2023 Graham Family Vineyard is a classic example of Russian River Pinot Noir in a cool year. There is plenty of fruit, mint and spice in the nose. The richness of the berry flavors on the palate are framed by higher than average acidity for Graham, due to the lower temperatures during the summer. Enjoy the '23 Graham from 2026 through 2038.
