WInemaker notes

On the richer smaker Noteside of the Pinot Noir world, this is refined, smooth and full bodied but not overbearing. Impeccably balanced. Winemaker Ken Bernards focuses on Burgundian varietals not only in Napa Valley, but up to his native Oregon and down to the Santa Rita Hills. His studies in Chemistry led him to become an enologist early, and in 1992 made his first barrels of Pinot Noir. Le Petit Elevage is a side project of his winery, Ancien.
