When Coopersmith was planted in 2001, we chose
two unique clones of Pinot Noir: Dijon 828
from Burgundy and Merry’s own California
selection, UCD37. The idea was to add
complexity to the wine by providing several
distinct blending components. After three
harvests it became obvious that this vineyard
had strong ideas about its destiny – the land
rejected the French clone... |

Pennsylvania, Walt and Joan Flowers had long
dreamed of combining their love of wine with

wanted to produce their favorite varietals,
Chardonnay and Pinot Noir; what they didn't
know was that their path would eventually lead
them across country to Northern California's
rugged Sonoma Coast. |

reality. |

..Making delicious wines of high personality is
directly related to the difficult locations of our
vineyard sources, the limited production of our
bottlings and the varietals we use. "Character
through adversity" is an expression that we
believe applies to people and grapevines and
surviving adversity builds character, and
personality, in both.

We believe
the best wine tour consists
of a few large, small and family vineyards. Many of
our guests
often like to go off the beaten path,
to the small boutique wineries that most don't visit.
Don't know where
you will eat?
We can provide you with knowledge of
popular gourmet eateries;
sit down or take out to many
serene picnic places.
