Description:
The three friends behind Anthill Farms met while working at Williams Selyem after various stints as cellar rats across the country, so they have California Pinot in their DNA. In 2004, they opened up Anthill Farms to pay homage to small growers by producing single-vineyard Pinots (plus Syrah). They also produce two appellation wines, and this alluring bottle showcases the cool, coastal terroir of Mendocino County.
