Moshin Vineyards Is “Pinot Heaven” ~ Russian River Valley’s Little Gem

July 25, 2015 by Deborah Mines

Calling all Pinot-philes… Time to experience a “range of motion” at Moshin Vineyards on the westside of Sonoma’s Russian River Valley.  Specializing in small lot, hand-crafted wines, there are always several interesting Pinot Noir wines to taste on any given day.

Local Artisan’s wares are exhibited in the tasting room with special artist receptions hosted throughout the year.   IMG_8391

Besides a fabulous line up of Pinot Noir wine, Moshin Vineyards also showcases Vin Gris, Pinot Gris, Zinfandel and Petite Sirah.  Other estate varietals include Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Merlot. 

IMG_0332Moshin Vineyards’ Wine Club Manager Julia Lander, is always on-hand to guide guests  or fellow industry professionals, through the tasting menu and to arrange for a one-of-a-kind winery tour.

IMG_8389Moshin Vineyards has a unique four-tier gravity flow system for making Pinot Noir.  The four-tiers are built into the slope of the land – utilizing the power of gravity for moving the wine through each stage of production.

“The goal at Moshin Vineyards is to carefully guide the grapes through the winemaking process and bring you a wine that expresses a truthful view into the heart of the vine.”

              ~  Rick Moshin, Owner

I highly recommend this little gem of a winery for excellent Pinot Noir ~ it’s literally barrels of fun!  www.moshinvineyards.com
