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.

The San Francisco Chronicle rates Naughty Boy Pinot THREE STARS

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.

The source of the entire world's supply of Naughty Boy Chardonnay comes from a small vineyard owned and farmed by Larry and Danny Thornton in the lovely remote appellation of Potter Valley. Here at the Russian River's headwaters you find the perfect growing conditions of ancient mineral-rich soils coupled with warm days and extremely cold nights that create intense and complex flavors. Winemaker Greg Graziano uses the traditional Burgundian method of barrel fermenting in French oak to handcraft this lush Chardonnay.
