discover the style and spirit of Sonoma Coast wines

Pinot Noir

Golden Hour

Luxurious and velvety, the dark fruit profile is a riper and fuller expression of Pinot Noir from the California coast.

Halley's Comet

Shimmering with notes of ripe berries and bright tannins worthy of a pair of Elton John’s star-shaped sunglasses.

Stargazing

Vibrant and exceedingly versatile with a light, clean finish.

A love letter to the spirit of the California Summer

Known for its cool climate and high rainfall, the Sonoma Coast AVA (Sonoma’s largest AVA) is an expansive appellation extending from San Pablo Bay to the border of Mendocino. Not surprisingly, pinot noir and chardonnay are the stars here, which benefit from the region’s cool temperatures and direct exposure to marine influences.

Map Maker: Summer Dreams, Fortunate Son and Hundred Acre New Releases

The Wine Independent | Lisa Perrotti-Brown

“I’m a direct descendent of Jacques Cartier, the cartographer,” Jayson Woodbridge tells me, seemingly apropos of nothing. But nothing is random or out of context with Jayson. For example, he describes Cartier as a cartographer, not an explorer—the profession by which Cartier is better known. With Jayson, every casually offered piece of shared information is specific and purposeful, whether you get it or not.
