THE ESTATE VINEYARD and THE VINTAGE
• Located in the heart of the Sta. Rita Hills on Santa Rosa road, Fiddlestix Vineyard is the confluence of an exceptional growing environment that meets the finicky demands of Pinot Noir. On the north side of a tight east-west running valley, fog hovers over our vines until mid-morning. Then coastal afternoon breezes blow through the Santa Rita Hills, ensuring cool grapes over a lengthy day of sunshine. Temperatures infrequently rise above 75. The soil is well-drained clay loam loaded with chirt and Monterey shale, specifically of the Gazos and Botella soil series. Truly a pinot noir paradise!
• 35 unique blocks of pinot noir, across100 acres first planted in 1998, are meticulously farmed with sustainability as the guiding force. Vine balance is achieved as we devote our farming to guardians of the earth.
