Adrian Fog is exactly what people think of, when they think of Sonoma. Single vineyard Pinot Noir. A great choice for wine gifts because production is severely limited to somewhere between 50 and three hundred fifty cases of wine for every single vineyard Pinot Noir which is produced. The house style is also what makes Russian River Pinot Noir famous, it is both fully ripe, but also high in acidity. That combination is virtually impossible to achieve and only shows up in a select few Pinot Noir locations throughout the world, Burdundy in France, a couple of California locations and parts of Oregon. You need long sunny summer days which come with cool day time temperatures as well as cooler nigth time temperatures. Sunlight without incredible warmth can happen in the Russian River Valley because the area is influenced by both the Pacific Ocean as well as the Russian River itself which winds directly next to the vineyard.
