WINEMAKER NOTES
2021 Marcassin Vineyard Pinot Noir – A Definitive Sonoma Coast Statement
The 2021 Marcassin Vineyard Pinot Noir reflects the precision, restraint, and coastal intensity that have made Marcassin one of California’s most coveted producers. Perched on the far reaches of the Sonoma Coast, the estate vineyard delivers a singular style that marries concentration with purity, shaped by maritime influence and meticulous farming.
Tasting Notes
The wine opens with aromas of wild strawberry, rose petal, crushed herbs, and subtle baking spice. The palate carries remarkable tension, combining ripe red fruit with saline minerality and fine, chalk-like tannins. Notes of pomegranate, raspberry, and forest floor extend through a long, lifted finish that highlights the cool-climate character of the site.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Marcassin Vineyard is planted exclusively to Pinot Noir on steep, low-yielding slopes shaped by coastal winds and volcanic soils. The fruit is hand-harvested, fermented with native yeasts, and aged in French oak barrels. Helen Turley’s minimalist approach preserves the vineyard’s natural intensity and structure, giving the 2021 vintage both depth and elegance.
Investment & Collectibility
Marcassin remains one of the most limited and collector-driven producers in California. The 2021 vintage, released in small quantities, shows the clarity and precision that have long placed Marcassin among the highest tiers of American Pinot Noir. Its scarcity and proven longevity make it a sought-after addition for fine wine investors.
Vintage Insights & Accolades
The 2021 growing season brought cool, even conditions that favored slow ripening and excellent fruit maturity. Critics celebrate the vintage for its precision, aromatic lift, and balance across the Sonoma Coast.
