Winery Notes: This is our first bottling of this vineyard owned and farmed by Peter and Rebecca Work who custom planted a 1.7 acre parcel in west facing clay loam soil to clone 828.
Aromas of spearmint, roasted root vegetable and caramelized beet followed by flavors of rosemary and rhubarb. Very tannic and firmly structured palate impression.

Wine Advocate: Brewer-Clifton’s 2007 Pinots represent another top-notch vintage for this estate. All of the wines are very young and primary, but are bursting with potential. Earth, herb, root vegetable, sassafras, red and black currant, and a hint of sweet and sour cherry characteristics are found in the 2007 Pinot Noir Ampelos. Another Burgundian-styled, earthy, soil-based wine, it roars from the glass with considerable complexity. It, too, will drink nicely for another decade. 94/100
