Tiny Island, big flavors… Penny Island floats around the mouth of Sonoma’s Russian River Valley, as it empties into the Pacific Ocean. It is emblematic of the regions cool and breezy summer days that make for an extended growing season, allowing this fruit to spend more time on the vine to soak up all of nature’s goodness.
The Russian River Valley appellation runs up west coast, where it’s influenced by coastal morning fog from the Pacific Ocean. This region stays relatively cool, which provides the perfect environment for cool-climate loving Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Temperate, consistent weather conditions make for a steady, even ripening and allow the grapes extra hang-time for full flavor development.
