2022 Walker Station Vineyard Pinot Noir
92 pts
Owen Bargreen
"The great 2022 ’Walker Station’ comes from this Green Valley site set on Goldridge soils. Salty and rocky soils mingle well with boysenberry fruit flavors and a touch of cola on the palate. Forward, juicy, medium-bodied and smooth on the mouth, enjoy now and over the next few years to come. Drink 2024-2031- 92"

Introducing
Walker Station
Vineyard owner Harry Walker has grown wine grapes in Napa Valley, Knights Valley, Dry Creek Valley and Lodi since 1968. In 2001 he found an ideal site on an east-facing slope in a cool valley southwest of Forestville in Sonoma County. He planted 3.2 acres of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Now retired, Harry approached us about leasing his vineyard and we leapt at the opportunity to farm this little gem renowned for exquisite fruit. We have exclusive access to the grapes, and we vineyard designate both the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
