Fiddlehead’s Estate Pinot Noir hails from a little slice of winegrape heaven in Santa Rita Hills, called Fiddlestix, a vineyard we own with great pride. Nestled between two other ultra-premium vineyards (Sanford & Benedict and Sea Smoke), Fiddlestix is the quintessential Pinot Noir dream vineyard. In a narrow slot of the Santa Rita Hills AVA, located at the western end of the transverse-oriented Santa Ynez Valley, our vines enjoy morning fog, mild sunny days, cool, ocean breezes and brisk evenings. The vineyard is planted to Pinot Noir, and Pinot Noir only. We meticulously farm to produce grapes of distinction, and yields are carefully controlled to produce unsurpassed Pinot Noir quality. You can learn more about Fiddlestix Vineyard in our Vines section.

We currently produce three distinct bottlings of Fiddlestix Pinot Noir. Cuvees Lollapalooza and Seven Twenty Eight proudly display our dark maroon and gold Estate label. And while we are incredibly fond of each barrel of wine in our cellar for its unique personality, occasionally we find that extra-special barrel or two for the collectors - a numbered bottling of Doyle, which sports a different label every vintage.
