2012 R2 Big Bend Chardonnay Russian River

Located slightly south and west of the town of Sonoma, Big Bend Vineyard is the estate site that is home for R2 Wines.  Purchased in 2007, the 19 acre property has 8 acres of Chardonnay that were planted in the 80’s and produce less than 2 tons per acre.  There are also 6 acres of high density Pinot Noir vines which were planted in 2007.  It serves not only as the source for our Big Bend Chardonnay, but also the base for our Black Pine Pinot Noir now that those new vines are producing.
