Dear Pinot Enthusiast,
In the Russian River Valley, spring brings conditions that naturally complement the elegance of Pinot Noir—vibrancy and clarity— to the vineyards.
This shipment showcases two distinct vineyard expressions, each crafted to be both expressive and versatile, tting seamlessly into the rhythm of the season.
We hope they inspire memorable meals and connections in the months ahead.
Kind regards,
Michael Accurso enroute winemaker

Northern Spy Vineyard Pinot Noir
russian river valley
Aromas of fresh wild strawberry, Earl Grey tea, cardamom, and candied orange rind lift from the glass. The palate is bold and expressive, carried by racy acidity and layered red fruit avors reminiscent of stewed strawberry and shortcake. The nish is long and lingering, leaving behind notes of ripe red fruit and a gentle oral spice.
