We are a small vineyard dedicated to the production of a world-class Pinot. As in Burgundy, we believe that the care and love of the grapes is the first process in producing a perfect Pinot Noir. We cut no corners in production, using new French Oak barrels every year. Some people spend money on trendy tasting rooms and new cars, we put it into our wines! We are determined to avoid the world of "Mondovino" and wish to remain small and in control of our products. Our farming practices are sustainable and organic. All these result in an exceptional Pinot Noir at a reasonable price compared to other Pinot of the equivalent mastery.

2006 Pinot Noir

NBV Pinot NoirSan Francisco Chronicle 2009 Wine Competition GOLD MEDAL

Made with Organically Grown Grapes

Pinot Noir is a full and hearty wine that should always be paired with a fine meal. Our Pinot has a rich velvety character that is ideal when paired with a rosemary lamb or a grilled salmon. Spicy food is made more savory when combined with a fine Pinot Noir. Remember to save this wine for a special dinner party.

Naughty Boy Vineyards is proud to announce its winemaker is Greg Graziano of Domaine St. Gregory. Mr. Graziano was educated at U. C. Davis and is an expert at the Burgundian Method of making the finest Pinot Noir.
