Maverick Vineyard
Pinot Noir 750ML
Current Wine: 2021
This bottling of Maverick Vineyard consists of California clones of Pinot Noir: Swan, Eden, and Calera. Grown on a hot site in Yamhill Carlton AVA. Layered flavor with notes of cherry stems, baking spices, and dark fruits. Depth and waves of lush plum lingers into raspberries, candied pecans, and herbed dates on the finish.
EIEIO Pinot Noir: The Winemaking
Wine quality starts in the vineyard. The site is everything and the farming a parallel. Looking over the vineyards I lease, each one has a distinct personality in exposure, age, farming and the subsequent wine from it. With this vast array of personalities, I can choose to either blend forming the Cuvees “E”, “I” and at times the elusive “O” or, if the vineyard is impressive enough as a standalone, produce a single vineyard or even a single block bottling. These are those wines.
Each farmer has their own philosophy on how to farm their property. Most have been farming their property for at least 10 years and have learned not only what the plants want, but also what the site needs. While the vineyards in the current EIEIO & Company portfolio have farming practices unique to that specific site, the overall philosophy aligns nicely with my vision. They do what they do and I do with it what I do, in an attempt to produce better wines.
