Morris Fay Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
A Pedroncelli grape source for four decades, this family-owned (since the 1890s), vineyard in northwest Alexander Valley produces rich, full flavored Cabernets with cassis, cedar and mint character.

Pedroni-Bushnell Vineyard Zinfandel
Located on the eastern bench of Dry Creek Valley, the 20-acre Pedroni-Bushnell Vineyard has been closely associated with the Pedroncellis for over 50 years. Winery founder John Sr. purchased the property (with Zinfandel, Petite Sirah and Carignane planted) in 1945. The vineyard was passed along to son-in-law Al Pedroni in the 1950's. Al's daughter Carol Bushnell inherited the vineyard in 1990 and she and her husband Jim tend the vineyard.

Frank Johnson Vineyard Chardonnay & Pinot Noir
Situated along the southern boundary of Dry Creek Valley, near the confluence of Dry Creek and the Russian River, this family-owned vineyard has provided Pinot Noir grapes to Pedroncelli for two decades. The location's cool microclimate and well-drained soils consistently produce Pinot Noir of uncommon finesse, depth and complexity.

Mother Clone Zinfandel
Some of the vines contributing to this wine were planted around the turn of the 20th century on the Pedroncelli Home Ranch. The newer plantings were propagated (cloned) from those venerable survivors. This unusually concentrated Zinfandel highlights ripe blackberry and spice notes.

Three Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon
As the name indicates, three vineyards provided fruit for this blend: Wolff Vineyard (hillside); two Pedroncelli blocks on Dry Creek Road: East Side Vineyards and West Side Vineyard. A blend also of three varietals including Cabernet, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Typical characteristics feature earthy currant, ripe berry and a slightly spicy touch in nose and flavors.

Bench Vineyards Merlot
The name of these vineyards describes the natural terraces flanking the (Dry Creek)valley floor and rising gradually (2-9%) into the hills. The two blocks used for this Merlot are from adjacent vineyards - Pedroncelli and Long - and produce a lush and smooth wine with black cherry, berry and spicy pepper aromas and flavors.

Alto Vineyard Sangiovese
This Italian varietal grows on terraced estate hillsides just west of the winery. With the well-drained soils of these hills and the unique micro-climate, the location suits Sangiovese well. The wine is redolent of cranberry, leather and spice aromas, all blending nicely on the palate.

Family Vineyards Petite Sirah
This richly flavored grape has been grown in the area for over 100 years. Pedroncelli's estate vineyard was planted in 1990 and thrives on a hillside west of the winery. The "Family" connection is the Pedroni-Bushnell vineyard, a source of zinfandel but also Petite Sirah and grown by niece Carol Bushnell. Full flavors of black cherry, ripe blackberry and black pepper are at the heart of this full-bodied red wine.

East Side Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc
Sauvignon Blanc is considered one of Dry Creek Valley's hallmark varietals. East Side refers to vineyards planted along Dry Creek where the vines on this side of the valley receive the full influence of sun with a balance of cool nights to maintain balance in the wine. Grapefruit, peach, and a hint of herbs outline the aroma and flavors-crisp and full textured on the finish.
