You guys LOVE La Pitchoune, and we totally get it. Read Jeb Dunnuck’s review... Pretty much nailed it there — this cuvee is sourced from a few top vineyards, including the coveted Pratt, and is 100% barrel-fermented in French oak, of which only 10% is new. This gives it its richness and beautiful texture, while a Chablis-like minerality and sea-air notes keeps it all in balance. Creamy, zesty…what more could you want? ONLY 22 CASES!

About the Producer

Tracy Nielsen and Peter Joachim Nielsen were inspired by a small family property in the south of France named "la pitchoune," or "the little one." The name speaks to small production, small lots, and the idea that small size is the greatest asset. The house theme is to produce pinot noirs that are not typically "California" in style, and they have prevailed again with this bottling of pinot.

The appellation 2017 Chardonnay La Revolte shows a big kiss of reduction yet blossoms with air, offering ample lemon and citrus-like fruits, notes of chalky minerality and matchstick, medium body, and a juicy, clean, elegant texture.
