2024 Monopole Crü Cuvée Pinot Noir
The 2024 Monopole Crü Bien Nacido Vineyard Pinot Noir comes from Block F, planted in 1973 on vitis vinifera roots. Bien Nacido is in the Santa Maria Valley, at the northern end of Santa Barbara County. It is known for its high quality and cool-climate characteristics. The 2024 is from a fairly warm vintage, but the cooling winds which blow directly east from the Pacific Ocean to the vineyard prevented the fruit from ripening too fast. The unique east-west orientation of the valley acts as a funnel for these onshore breezes. Enjoy the 2024 Monopole Crü Pinot from early 2026 through 2036.
