2019 Cherry Pie Pinot Noir San Pablo Bay Block
Jayson Woodbridge’s name is synonymous with quality, so when he approached the historic Stanly Ranch in Carneros with his sights set on producing premium Pinot Noir, he received access to some of the property’s finest blocks. Jayson is the proud founder of Hundred Acre Winery and has been awarded a remarkable twenty-two perfect 100-Point scores from Wine Advocate over the last two decades.
 
Jayson desired to add Pinot Noir to his repertoire, inspired by the juicy cherry pies his grandmother baked while he was growing up. He combined that with the simple, everyday American life artist T.R. Colletta whose art graces the label to complete his vision. Cherry Pie Pinot Noir is packed with decadent, perfectly ripe, concentrated fruit, balanced by fresh acidity, and is an absolute delight to swirl and taste.

“Robust in body and pleasurable to sip, this French oak-aged Pinot Noir is distinctive, with smoky cedar, sage, black cherry, and black pepper. Round and earthy, with unexpected muscle.”

2015 Cherry Pie Stanly Ranch Pinot Noir
After dominating one varietal for more than a decade, the natural progression is to begin a new challenge and conquer that too. Jayson Woodbridge did just that. His Hundred Acre Cabernets reign as one of the top Cult wines in Napa for over a decade, and choosing Pinot Noir as a challenge, he sourced from the iconic Stanly Ranch Vineyard in Carneros. The 2015 vintage is loaded with concentrated cherry fruit, wild rhubarb, and subtle spice, and with a 95 Point Score from Tasting Panel Magazine, now is the perfect time to try it.  
 
Judge Stanly planted the original Stanly Ranch Vineyard in the 1800s, but since being replanted in 2001, it’s been a source for COHO, Saintsbury, and others. The well-drained Haire-loam soils, rolling hills, and coastal influences are ideal for ripening Pinot Noir to the pinnacle of perfection. 
 
Cherry Pie made the 2015 vintage in a dense style, layered with seductive red fruits, intriguing spices, and subtle floral notes. Each small-block was micro-lot fermented to isolate the individual flavors and aromas, and the wine is aged sur lie for the entire process, which contributes to the depth of flavor.

“Stanly Ranch, the easternmost vineyard on the Napa Valley side of Carneros, has proven itself as ideal ground for Pinot Noir for more than 70 years, thanks to its well-drained clayloam soils, gentle slopes, and cool San Pablo Bay breezes.This French oak-aged red offers cinnamon- and nutmeg-spiced rose-petal aromatics and ahint of forest floor. Mocha-tinged soild and strawberry jam fill the mouth with flavor alongside generous notes of tomato leaf, cranberry, and tobacco. Pretty, feminine, and bright.” 95 Points
