Case

Case Pinot Noir is named in honor of Sarah Case Talbott, the eldest child of the Talbott family, and is crafted to be enjoyed by enthusiasts of Burgundian-style Pinot Noir.

Case Pinot Noir
Grapes for the wine come from special blocks of the acclaimed Sleepy Hollow Vineyard.  Located adjacent to the winery in the Santa Lucia Highlands of Monterey County, Sleepy Hollow has been part of the Robert Talbott Vineyards estate since 1994.  Traditional Burgundian methods, including handpicking and sorting; long, cool fermentation in small open-top tanks, and punching down the cap by hand, result in a full-bodied wine with a massive velvety texture. The wine enjoys significant aging time in both French oak and the bottle prior to release. Case Pinot Noir has excellent structure and ample soft tannins, which make it an ideal candidate for extended aging; yet the wine’s ripe, forward fruit also makes it an excellent wine to savor upon release.
