Racines La Rinconada Pinot Noir

A beautiful garnet red in colour. The bouquet has striking aromatic top notes that soar bringing sweet red cherry, sage, rose petal, blood orange and lavender aromas. The palate brings layered complexity with savoury, wild and
constantly changing notes, the La Rinconada has so much to offer. This is brilliant and captivating on the finish.

Racines is a collaboration led by Étienne de Montille and Brian Sieve of Burgundy and Rodolphe Péters of Champagne. Étienne and Brian had been on an exploratory trip to California and Oregon in search of a place where they could put down roots for a initial project beyond of France. In the Santa Rita Hills, they found the precision and finesse they were looking for. A year later Rodolphe Péters, with a similar intent, joined to create a range of sparkling wines, also from the Santa Rita Hills. The team came together to join their individual experiences in hand-crafting wines of purity and transparency to create a range of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the cool climate of the Sta. Rita Hills in California. Racines represents the coming together of all that is wondrous about Burgundy, Champagne and California.
