The lucky winning bidder of this lot is in for a rare treat. Porter Creek Vineyards produces some of the best Pinot Noirs in Northern California. You will receive 3 bottles of each of their 2018 Pinot Noirs.
2018 Estate Pinot Noir - Sourced from steep estate hillside vineyards using organic and biodynamic principals. This wine shows elements of wild strawberry and fresh forest floor on the nose and a sensual textural balance on the palette.
2018 Fiona Hill Vineyard Pinot Noir - This is our flag ship Pinot Noir. Hard clay top soil with a fractured stone bedrock place continual stress on these vines, resulting in a very expressive, unique vineyard designate wine. The nose has aromas of wild berries and forest floor, a weighty mid-palate and long silky finish.
2018 Reserve Pinot Noir - This wine is a special selection, produced from within the "Fiona Hill Vineyard". The Winegrower's Reserve is generally the richest of our Pinot Noirs, with a nice balance of red and dark fruit and age worthy tannins.
2018 Hillside Old Vine Pinot Noir - Planted in 1973 and continuously producing with many of the original vines, this is among the oldest Pinot Noir vineyards in the Russian River Valley. Aromatically it leans in the red fruit and rose petal spectrum, with just a little dark red fruit in the background giving some palette weight.
SFGMC singing member Mike Bernard was manager of this winery for 10 years. Jonathan DeMichael is the current manager.
