Ribbon Ridge — Pinot Country Three and a half square miles of uniform sedimentary soil rising out of Yamhill-Carlton — one of the smallest AVAs in the country, and one of the tidiest arguments for drawing a line around a single landform. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/ribbon-ridge/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 33K
Santa Cruz Mountains — Pinot Country Vines scattered through fault-ridge forest either side of the range, some facing the ocean, some facing the bay, none of them flat. Martin Ray planted pinot noir here when almost nobody in California would. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/santa-cruz-mountains/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 33K
Williams Selyem — Pinot Country Burt Williams and Ed Selyem started in a Forestville garage in the early 1980s, bought fruit from Russian River growers and put the vineyard's name on the label. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/producer/williams-selyem/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 32K
Hanzell Vineyards — Pinot Country James Zellerbach planted two acres of pinot noir and four of chardonnay above Sonoma in 1953, then built a cellar copying Burgundy's methods — French oak, temperature control, inert gas. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/producer/hanzell/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 33K
Anderson Valley — Pinot Country Mendocino's fog gap: a narrow valley along the Navarro River, open to the ocean at one end, redwoods at both edges. Sparkling houses came for the acid and stayed for the pinot. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/anderson-valley/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
Dundee Hills — Pinot Country A single hill of red volcanic Jory soil north-west of Dundee, and the ground Oregon pinot noir started on in 1965. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/dundee-hills/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
Sanford & Benedict — Pinot Country The planting that proved the Santa Ynez river gap: put in during 1971 by Richard Sanford and Michael Benedict on a north-facing slope nobody else wanted, and now inside the Sta. Rita Hills AVA. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/vineyard/sanford-and-benedict/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 31K
Calera — Pinot Country Josh Jensen went looking for limestone in California because Burgundy grows on it, found a lime kiln site high on Mount Harlan in San Benito County, and planted pinot noir at 2,200 feet in 1975. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/producer/calera/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 30K
Russian River Valley — Pinot Country Fog runs up the river gap from the Pacific most summer nights and sits until mid-morning. Sonoma planted pinot noir into that fog and the plantings tripled in a decade. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/russian-river-valley/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 30K
Sta. Rita Hills — Pinot Country A wind tunnel between Buellton and Lompoc where the Santa Ynez Valley opens west to the ocean. Fog in the morning, thirty-knot afternoons, and some of the slowest ripening in California. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/sta-rita-hills/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 34K
