Maggy Hawk continues to be a model of innovation and dedication to quality, led by visionary winemaker Sarah Wuethrich. Her philosophy, deeply rooted in a respect for nature and a pursuit of purity in every bottle, is reflected in the wines that embody the land and her passion. The choice to plant the vineyards in "The Deep End" of the valley, where conditions are challenging yet rewarding, underscores Maggy Hawk's ambition to produce wines of exceptional elegance and complexity.
Maggy Hawk's vineyards, shrouded in the misty mornings of the Mendocino coast, provide the perfect home for Pinot Noir grapes. The diverse landscape, from the lofty Skycrest Vineyard to the lush Edmeades Vineyard in the middle of the valley, creates a unique environment for the grapes to thrive. Each area has its own characteristics that give Maggy Hawk's wines their distinctive flavor. Each block is fermented individually to highlight its unique characteristics. This is followed by a gentle pressing and aging in 30% new French oak barrels for 17 months. This process culminates in a wine that remains unfiltered and unfined, creating a pure and unforgettable experience.
The Unforgettable Pinot Noir captivates your taste buds with a delightful blend of crisp black cherries and red plums, perfectly balanced by subtle hints of dried lavender, bay leaf, anise, and earthy notes. This wine combines power and lingering flavor with remarkable freshness, blending structured, juicy flavors with silky tannins. Each sip reveals a new story in the complex journey of this exquisite Pinot Noir.
