The History
The Canihan Family produces award-winning Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Cabernet Franc from our certified organic estate vineyards in the heart of the Sonoma Valley
The Vineyard
The Canihan Family vineyards are ideally located in the Sonoma Valley, and because we border on the Los Carneros Appellation, the vineyards receive the cool evening breezes and frequent fog from San Francisco Bay that provide for perfect grape growing conditions. Organic vineyard management practices, dry-farming, hand-harvesting only at complete ripeness, fermentation with naturally occurring native yeast, and no fining or filtering result in flavorful wines expressive of our “terroir”. Our commitment to elegant and flavorful wine is also evidenced by our low yields, which never exceed two tons per acre
Tasting Notes
A fragrant nose of black currant, dark chocolate, spice, mint, and cherry fruit fold into sweet tobacco, soy and brewed espresso. The mouth feel is smooth with medium tannins, an elegant Loire-style Cab Franc lacking the traditional gaminess quality, and is followed by a long, lingering finish.
