Husch Vineyards planted the first Pinot Noir vines in the Anderson Valley, over 35 years ago, in a special place we call "The Knoll". These old vines thrive in an outcropping of sandstone with shale lenses-possessing good drainage, probably the hallmark of this block and one of the reasons the Knoll consistently produces high quality Pinot Noir. The Knoll overlooks the Navarro River and benefits from its cool night air.

After hand harvesting, 75% of the Pinot Noir grapes were crushed and destemmed, while the remaining 25% were whole cluster, then fermented in small open-top bins. During fermentation the must was gently punched down three times per day, by hand. The lot was aged in French oak (50% new) for 15 months with minimal handling.

The 2006 Knoll shows aromas of black cherry, cola, violets, and vanilla. The palate reveals cherry, strawberry, clove and spicy sassafras. A hint of forest floor mingles well with the toasted oak. This wine will develop complexity and the Knoll's characteristic earthy tones with additional bottle age.
