The 2007 “Family Farm” is a time capsule—one of the earliest releases from Rhys Vineyards, showing just how well their low-intervention, terroir-driven approach ages. Planted in the late ‘90s on gravelly loam near San Mateo, Family Farm is one of Rhys’s most approachable sites when young, but with surprising staying power, especially in a cool vintage like 2007.

After more than 15 years, the wine is fully mature and beautifully expressive: dried cherry, cranberry, rose petals, mushroom, and earthy spice, with silky tannins and a long, savory finish. The fruit is now secondary to the tertiary layers—leather, tea leaf, and forest floor—that make mature Pinot such a pleasure to drink.

Made with whole-cluster fermentation, native yeasts, and minimal new oak, this bottling showcases the early Rhys philosophy: Burgundian sensibility meets California transparency. It’s delicate but not fragile, with a calm, steady presence in the glass.

Best served with lighter meats, game birds, or simply appreciated on its own for what it is—a thoughtful, handcrafted Pinot that’s aged with grace.

BH 91
"A floral, pure and ultra elegant nose of freshly crushed red berry fruit aromas merge into delicious, ripe and admirably concentrated medium-bodied flavors that possess a supple mouth feel on the mid-palate but tighten up considerably on the firm, mouth coating and moderately austere finish that is balanced and lingering. ...Harvey has chosen his vineyard sites with a keen eye and then obsessively developed them with the one goal of obtaining fruit that expresses unerringly the uniqueness of site. Simply put, these are terroir-driven wines par excellence."

"Under the flagship Rhys moniker, the Rhys 2007 Pinot Noir Family Farm Vineyard looks to be a brilliant Pinot Noir from clay/loamy soils and sandstone. This Pinot exhibits intense red cherry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with some damp earth and forest floor notes. The wine is medium to full-bodied, elegant, pure, and just hinting at its ultimate potential. Backward, with an attractive acid profile, and sweet, noble tannin.." -Robert Parker
