| Mendocino County is the home of our Blue Jay Pinot Noir , west of Philo in the Southern portion of the county , Anderson Valley has once again provided us with the fruit for the Blue Jay from vineyards on the west end of the valley. Savoy and Hein tend to round out the blend , making a huge hit! Savoy Vineyard, Anderson Valley, Mendocino County. Located just north of the small town of Philo, CA. The vineyards influence is the cool coastal climate coupled with plenty of sun exposure. The vineyard is planted on the east slope of Anderson Valley supplying a small steep terrace, rolling hills and a bit of valley floor. These variations in the land aid in working with the five clones and seven sections we have selected, giving Savoy depth and complexity. Each section is individually field tested and then picked separately to ensure the personality of the section is not compromised. Tonnage is thinned to 1.5 to 2 tons per acre, concentrating the decadence of the fruit. Savoy's flavor profile ranges from luscious blueberries to sweet red strawberries and black cherries. | | |
