About the wine
Silky, cool-climate Pinot Noir - a limited Sonoma specialty from Richard Bruno
- This Pinot Noir packs the depth of a classic cool-climate Pinot, with elegant dark fruit, like ripe bing cherry and black raspberry, backed by a subtle touch of spice and a long, sleek finish.
- Richard selected this Pinot from a single vineyard in the Petaluma Gap area of the larger Sonoma Coast region and pulled out all the stops in the winery, which included giving the wine a full 18 months of aging in French oak for an extra layer of refined complexity.
- This bottling of Pinot Noir is a special-edition release from Richard’s own company Vinum Cellars. Supplies are limited, and as a one-time release, this may be the only vintage of this wine you ever see on the site. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.

Best before
While the wine is drinking beautifully now, it will continue to improve with age through 2033.
Serving advice
While most of my wines benefit from decanting, this wine tends to do well right out of the bottle.
Food match
This wine pairs well with five spice roasted duck breast and French lentils. While standing up to a filet mignon, the profile is nice with fresh line-caught Yellow Tail or Bluefin Tuna off the grill and served with an eggplant, goat cheese and sun dried tomato frittata. If you love Burgundy, this wine needs nothing more than a wine opener, a glass and good company.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Richard Bruno
- Richard Bruno is exactly what we love in a winemaker– the quiet achiever behind the scenes at some of the world's most famous wine brands. He's made wine for Francis Ford Coppola and Don Sebastiani, the latter of which was named Winery of the Year TWICE under his watch.
- And in his 20 years making wine for famous wineries and earning them 90+ scores, he has traveled all up and down California's coastal wine regions. His experience and familiarity with the terrain allow him to sniff out the best-bang-for-buck pretty much anywhere in CA.
- But launching your own wine brand is hard and expensive, so he's using Angel funding– and he's able to focus on winemaking, instead of wine-selling.
