A delightfully fresh and bright new Pinot release that displays a level of sophistication reminiscent of collector favorites (e.g. Kistler) that trade for significantly higher prices. Spicy dark fruit, black tea, and savory herbs impress now after decanting. This under-the-radar gem will pair quite well with an array of menus featuring grilled meats (beef, chicken or salmon) and creamy French cheeses. Enjoy now through 2030.

A native of South Carolina, Thomas Brown followed his interest in wine to the Napa Valley after
completing college. His early days in the valley took him through a number of small
wineries but his winemaking career began at Turley Wine Cellars where he was the
assistant winemaker through 2001.

Best known for the Cabernet Sauvignons that he has crafted for Schrader Cellars,
Thomas has also received numerous accolades from the press. In 2010, Food & Wine
Magazine named him Winemaker of the Year. Additionally, he is one of only a handful
of winemakers globally to have received multiple 100-point wine scores from both The
Wine Spectator and The Wine Advocate.
