Migration (Duckhorn Vineyards)

Charles Heintz Vineyard Chardonnay 2012

The Migration label first appeared in 2001 as the second label of Goldeneye, both under the Duckhorn masthead, first focusing on Pinot Noir and later adding Chardonnay. Like Paraduxx to Duckhorn, it is no longer a second label, but a winery unto itself. In 2008 Migration, and by extension, Duckhorn, produced its first Chardonnay. In 2009 they produced their first Chardonnay from the legendary Charles Heintz Vineyard. The Charles Heintz Vineyard is located just outside of the town of Occidental where Charlie’s family has farmed the land for over 100 years. Two ridges in, and only about 8 miles from the Pacific Ocean, the vineyard is situated in the Green Valley of Russian River Valley AVA. Heintz has become one of the most famous Chardonnay sites in California, with notable producers including Ceritas, DuMol, Freeman, Flowers, L'Angevin, Kosta Browne, Littorai, Migration/Duckhorn, Moone-Tsai, Pierson Meyer, and Williams Selyem. With its classic Goldridge sandy loam soils, and located just above the fog line, the vineyard receives abundant sunshine and cool ocean breezes. Super mellow Chardonnay, with candied orchard fruit, honeysuckle, wet stone, and some secondary hazelnut, with just a flutter of mushroom in the background. — 8 years ago

Wow. Didn't know they worked with Heintz. One of my favorite small producers, Montagu Wines, has a Heintz chard coming out in a year or two. Their Durell vineyard and Ritchie vineyard (with the help of Russell Bevan on the Richie one) have been outstanding. Looking forward to trying Heintz.

Tasting this wine v Littorai Cerise and a 2005 Gevrey Lavaux St Jacques. Nose is great; taste is bright cherries; a happy wine. Will be great with the duck with cherries for dinner. B — 11 years ago

Terra Neuma Pinot Noir 2007

Bottle 2 of 2 elegant coastal PNs provided by our gracious hosts on Diamond Mountain. Mini 2007 horizontal. This bottle a bit riper and bigger - fruit moving more towards the darker cherry and pomegranate juice realm. Adding suggestions of cola and soy sauce as well. Still fantastic balance but the extra point or so of alcohol makes this not quite as elegant as the Littorai. — 6 years ago

Domaine Tortochot

Lavaux St. Jacques Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2005

Musky and mushrooms. Very tannic but has opened up nicely after about an hour. Tasting with the W Selyem 12 Vista Verde (bright) and the Littorai 12 Cerise (balanced). More depth but surprisingly short lived. Want and expect more. — 11 years ago

San Andreas Fault Pinot Noir 2011

Very gorgeous - you know it's a top Sonoma Coast Pinot as soon as you smell it.
In the wonderful 10 Cases it drank beautifully with plates of lamb lion and suckling pig.
Superb wine.....but not quite up to Littorai standards.
