Consistency is an important element to our style. We cold-soak all the grapes for two to four days before fermenting. We use the same cultured yeast and the same type of François Frères barrels for 11-12 months of oak aging for our Pinot Noirs and 12-17 months for our Zinfandels.

2023 Campbell Ranch

Our 2023 Campbell Ranch Pinot Noir was voted 2026 Los Angeles Invitational Event Winner!

The amazing dark garnet color is driven by the nuances of strawberry, cranberry and blackberry notes. On the nose, hints of crushed rock, and complex minerality are expressed with notes of forest floor and pleasant mushrooms. As the wine opens, blackberry, boysenberry, and cranberry notes emerge with hints of cherry cola and warming brown spice. A textured mid-palate, subtle tannin and refreshing acidity creates body and balance.

2023 Chardonnay

A Papapietro Perry exclusive, this 95-point wine is an extraordinary expression of its Russian River Valley terroir, where coastal fog and warm, sun-drenched days coax exceptional depth and complexity from the grapes.

In the glass, the wine presents with exquisite clarity and a brilliant honey color. The aromas are immediately captivating, offering a vibrant bouquet of lemon zest, ripe apple, and lush tropical notes of papaya and pineapple. A subtle, well-integrated touch of French oak provides soft whispers of vanilla and toasty richness. The wine unfolds on the palate with a luxurious, soft texture and a refreshing, refined acidity. The mild minerality allows the full expression of the fruit to shine through, leading to an exceptionally long, memorable finish. This is a remarkably balanced Chardonnay—a wine you can savor on its own or pair with your most delicate culinary creations.

2022 Peters Vineyard

Located a few miles west of Sebastopol on the edge of the Russian River Valley appellation with Gold Ridge soil, lies Peters Vineyard, the backbone of our production and is planted with Pommard, 115 and 777 clones. An ideal location for Pinot Noir, this former apple orchard is blanketed by the cool ocean fog in the morning and evening, coaxing out the grapes’ best flavors. The hot sunny days intensify the fruit and create just the flavor profile we are looking for in our wine.

A fan-favorite for a reason, this Pinot Noir is impeccably balanced and truly captivating. On the nose, it offers enticing aromas of dark red fruits and effusive floral notes of rose petal. As the wine opens, its intense candied flavors of cherry and raspberry unfold on the palate, beautifully complemented by a hint of caramel and vanilla. With a medium weight, silky texture, and hint of spice, this wine’s complexity evolves gracefully in the glass. This is the perfect food wine for any occasion and possesses a great ability for wine aging gracefully in your cellar.

2022 Sonoma Coast

A testament to our philosophy of exploration and discovery, our 2022 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is an exceptional expression of its terroir. Stretching from the
