2023 Goldeneye Anderson Valley Pinot Noir The Narrows Vineyard

Situated on a narrow ridgetop at the northernmost tip of the Anderson Valley, The Narrows Vineyard is a historic mountain ranch planted with mature Pinot Noir vines. A mere 10 miles from the rugged Mendocino Coast, this vineyard is affected by strong marine influences that produce summer fog and cooler daytime temperatures. It is the perfect setting for growing grapes of great intensity that embody the vineyard’s rugged beauty and wildness.

  • Rooted in the cool depths of Anderson Valley, this Pinot Noir reveals savory aromas of trumpet mushroom, coastal cedar, peppercorn and hints of brown sugar and graphite. The full-bodied palate is structured and expressive, offering firm tannins and vibrant flavors of wild blackberry, black plum, huckleberry and lifted mint, finishing with a lasting, umami-rich resonance.

BACKSTORY

Goldeneye Winery was founded in 1996, years before the Pinot Noir boom that has reshaped the landscape of California winemaking. But the genesis for Goldeneye goes back even further. In 1990, after fifteen years of making world-class Bordeaux-varietal wines, Dan and Margaret Duckhorn embraced their growing love of Pinot Noir. Their vision for Goldeneye was simple, though not easy. They wanted to found a winery that could make a terroir-inspired expression of California Pinot Noir of equal stature to the acclaimed Merlots they had pioneered at Duckhorn Vineyards in Napa Valley.
