2011 Marcassin "Marcassin Vineyard" Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

2011 Marcassin "Marcassin Vineyard" Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Marcassin Vineyard is one of California’s most iconic cult wine estates, founded by the husband-and-wife team of Helen Turley and John Wetlaufer. Perched on a remote ridge close to the Pacific Ocean, the estate vineyard is shaped by extreme coastal conditions, including persistent fog, strong maritime winds, and exceptionally long growing seasons that yield Pinot Noir of remarkable intensity and precision. Marcassin’s uncompromising focus on low yields, meticulous farming, and extended élevage has produced some of California’s most sought-after Pinot Noirs, with the estate bottling representing a singular expression of Sonoma Coast terroir that balances power, texture, and extraordinary aging potential.
