Robbie Meyer is a Rockstar winemaker. Robbie has spent over 25 years living in Napa, making wine for top producers such as Peter Michael and Lewis. Back in 2001 Robbie was enjoying a bottle of wine with Alan Peirson the former vineyard manager for Peter Michael. Together, they brainstormed the idea of joining forces to create their own label. With a little help from their wives, they came up with a name and logo for their brand by sketching it on a cocktail napkin. That fall in 2001, Peirson Meyer was born!

Winemaker Notes: Bright fruit aromas of cherry, wild ripe berries and pomegranate blend graciously with a palate that hints of sweet spice, a flinty minerality, and a distinctive fresh earth quality. Open and expressive in its youth, the 2021 will expand and age beautifully for years to come.

Peirson Meyer Pinot Noir: Sourced from the Russian River is a blend from two vineyards (Miller and Bateman Vineyards) that both lie at approximately 700 feet above sea level, near Occidental. Both are planted in Goldridge soils. The vines are trained on a vertical trellis system (VSP) on northeastern facing slopes that offer protection from the hot summer afternoon sun.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley is powerful and ripe, with scents of baked plums, blueberry, forest floor, Angostura bitters and allspice. The medium-bodied palate features bold, earthy fruit, loads of grainy tannins, juicy acidity and a flavorful finish.
