Vine Wrangler Pinot Noir is grown exclusively in our Highland Estate Vineyard in the Sebastopol Hills of Sonoma County where the perfect blend of sun, fog, ocean breeze and cool temperatures join in harmony with Goldridge Fine Sandy Loam soil to give our Pinot Noir luscious quality and depth of character.
These temperamental vines are coaxed, cajoled and sweet-talked by our founder, Mark Strombotne, who wrangled horses and cattle as a cowboy, then judges and juries as a lawyer and now wrangles vines and wines as a winegrower.
Life is too short to drink average wine. Indulge. Enjoy Vine Wrangler Pinot Noir.

This is a gorgeous Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. Aromas of violets, alpine strawberries, and red currants. On the palate you may taste juicy red cherries, ripe raspberries, and succulent strawberries. Silky tannins from start to finish and a delicate acidity that lingers for a smooth mouthfeel that is well-integrated. This is a delicate wine with both complexity and approachability, making it a great choice for wine enthusiasts and food lovers alike.
This wine starts with a beautiful salmon pink color. Aromas of strawberries and cream, meyer lemon zest, ambrosia salad, satsuma orange, and a hint of peak of season apricot. The palate is absolutely gorgeous. There is so much fruit on the front palate: stone fruit, more strawberry notes, orange and meyer lemon zest, and the mid and back palate are bright and elegant with great and balanced acidity that lingers.
