2022 Pinot Noir, Wilson Vineyard
Clarksburg AVA, nestled in California's Sacramento River Delta, offers a unique terroir that imparts distinctive characteristics to its Pinot Noir wines. The region's cool maritime climate, influenced by breezes from the San Francisco Bay, combined with fertile alluvial soils, creates an environment conducive to producing balanced and expressive Pinot Noir. Our Pinot Noir is derived from the Pommard clone, a clone the Ursa Winemakers worked with early in their careers in the Santa Cruz Mountains.
