The Peter Martin Ray Vineyard is a prime example. It sits at 1,600 feet on Mount Eden in the Santa Cruz Mountains, where dry-farmed vines planted in the 1970s from cuttings traced back to Paul Masson grow in rocky shale. Yields are tiny and the clusters small, giving fruit of real concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 was fermented with 100% whole clusters and native yeasts, then aged in neutral French oak barrels and bottled unfiltered. It pairs mountain intensity with genuine finesse: low in alcohol, long on energy, and full of perfume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA perfumed, mountain-grown Pinot Noir from historic, dry-farmed 1970s vines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWild cranberry, pomegranate and blood orange, lifted by pine needle and tea leaf.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhole-cluster fermentation adds botanical spice and fine, chalky grip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCool mountain elevation brings laser-like acidity and a long, stony finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLovely now, with the structure to evolve for well over a decade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Serve It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServe at cool cellar temperature, 58-62°F.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecant for about 45 minutes to let the whole-cluster spice and minerality open up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurgundy stems will make the most of its delicate, perfumed bouquet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePair with seared duck breast and a cherry-black pepper glaze, venison carpaccio, or a wild mushroom risotto finished with thyme.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SommSelect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47977518497846,"sku":"SOMM2610-AR24PMR-750","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/3628\/8822\/files\/2024Arnot-Roberts_PinotNoir_PeterMartinRayVineyard_SantaCruzMountains_1.png?v=1791309000","url":"https:\/\/sommselect.com\/products\/2024-arnot-roberts-pinot-noir-peter-martin-ray-vineyard-santa-cruz-mountains","provider":"SommSelect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
