The story of Rogue Pinot Noir is something truly meaningful.

Inspired by a good friend.
His legacy was an attitude of F-it. Chase your dreams. Ignore the haters.
Know that true greatness exists on the fringes.
That exceptional is rarely 'safe'.

A transcendent tribute. Inspiration, dedication, gravelly eloquence. 
And pixie dust.

Rogue is a single-vineyard wine from grapes we've been working with for over a decade.
Tasting through our barrels after the 2024 we saw something exceptional. Pixie dust. 
Something on the fringes. 

Conditions in the 2024 growing season gave us fruit with visceral intensity.
High-altitude and cool nights protected a razor-sharp natural acidity, while pristine, low-yield days built a core of dark, brooding cherry, damp earth, and dried botanicals. We didn't try to polish the edges or force it into a safe, commercial box.

We gave it high-end French oak to rest in and let its natural grit shine through.

Acting 'Rogue' is something to embrace. 
A small batch to champion. 
A chance.
