Plenty of California Pinot Noir is made with a share of whole clusters. This one goes all the way, and the vineyard is what makes that possible. The fruit comes from the steepest hillside blocks of Chene Vineyard in Edna Valley, which sit on Monterey formation bedrock. The vines there stay low-vigour without any help and set small, concentrated clusters whose stems turn woody and ripe early, and ripe stems are exactly what you need before you ferment whole bunches. Gina Hildebrand, who founded Lady of the Sunshine in 2017, uses 100% whole clusters and native yeast. She ages the wine in neutral French oak and bottles it unfined and unfiltered. The farming is certified biodynamic. Lady of the Sunshine wines are concentrated, clear-cut and linear, and they need air. With a bottle this young, decant it or give it a few years in the cellar.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast duck breast with cherry sauce, wild mushroom risotto, cedar-plank salmon, herb-crusted pork tenderloin, or roast quail with lentils.

Tasting Profile

Expect the bright, cool-coastal side of California Pinot Noir: red cherry, cranberry and wild strawberry, lifted by the herbal, peppery spice and floral notes that whole-cluster fermentation tends to bring. Medium-bodied and linear, with fresh acidity and fine, stem-driven tannins, it typically finishes dry, taut and savoury. Think red Burgundy more than plush California Pinot.
