Valravn Pinot Noir is an exploration of Sonoma County, anchored in the Russian River Valley. Vineyards span as far NORTH as Annapolis, EAST as Sonoma Mountain, WEST as Freestone, SOUTH as Petaluma Gap. Notable vineyards include Sunnyslope (Bennett Valley AVA), Gap’s Crown (Petaluma Gap - Sonoma Coast AVA), Grand Vent (Petaluma Gap - Sonoma Coast AVA), Gravenstein (Russian River), and Walala (Annapolis - Sonoma Coast AVA).

In the cellar, hand-sorted grapes undergo cold soak followed by primary fermentation in small open-top stainless steel tanks for 12-14 days. Following primary, the wine was transferred to a blend of 25% new Cavin, François Freres, Remond, and Tremeaux barrels for 11 months malolactic and aging.

“Focused on vineyards in the Russian River Valley, this has simple red cherry flavors, light tannins and gentle elegance. There’s length and substance to that red fruit and spice, and the price makes this a wine to buy by the case.” - Josh Greene
