Since 1977, Matanzas Creek Winery has been focused on creating balanced, elegant wines that are regarded as Sonoma County classics. The 2008 Bennett Valley Pinot Noir is a fine example of what can be achieved when artisan winemaking techniques are applied to the marvelous bounty of Mother Nature. 2008 marks our third vintage of Pinot Noir since the late 1970's. Our cool climate home in Bennett Valley provides ideal growing conditions for this fickle grape.
