March 1, 2025

Dear Friends of Shibumi Knoll,

This year, we’ll be offering both the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay for our Spring release. The 2021 Pinot Noir has sold out, so I’ve decided to offer the 2022 earlier in the year.  I’m excited for this year and vintages as they are both so delicious.

2022 Shibumi Knoll Buena Tierra Chardonnay

The 50+ year old vines and the grapes they produce are in the hands of Mother Nature, and she keeps giving the Buena Tierra Vineyard and Shibumi Knoll beautiful flavors, with smooth elegance and robust bunches of grapes, allowing us to produce outstanding chardonnay that is still going strong. I have such a love for these vines and the wine embodies that passion. This 2022 vintage exhibits the best of Shibumi.

You’ll want to drink this vintage over and over.The nose is a refreshing scent of Meyer lemon and peach. There is a touch of citrus with delicate ripe pear and roasted nectarine on the palate leading to a finish that will leave you with a delicious and lingering tingling sensation. This is an elegant and wonderful vintage.  Enjoy every sip.

2022 Shibumi Knoll Riddle Pinot Noir

This Pinot Noir is bold and smooth with expressions of the soil that nurture this beautiful wine. The nose will draw you in with its complex aroma telling the tale of the environment in Occidental where the grapes are grown.  Sonoma coast’s warm days, cool nights, lingering fog, and rich soil made up of stones and pebbles, iron and sandstone enhance this delicious pinot.

The wine has notes of forest floor and damp earth. Baked apple with a hint of smoked cinnamon and black raspberry, leather with vanilla and dark cherry lead to a perfect finish. This vintage will please the palate. It’s delicious. Enjoy!

Thank you all for being our loyal customers. We put a lot of love into producing our wine and we’re honored to be part of your lives.

Cheers,

Joann Serafini
