This groundbreaking vineyard overlooks the town of Bodega and lies on the outer reaches of the viticultural frontier. One of the most marginal Pinot Noir sites in California, our 5.2 acre blocks struggle to set fruit every year as they are buffeted by chilling winds blowing in from the coast five miles away. Red Car has been sourcing fruit from this acclaimed site since it’s very first harvest in 2008 (alongside our friends at Littorai and Scherrer), making it one of the more familiar and consistent Pinot Noirs in the Red Car lineup.
