Exceptional Sonoma Pinot Noir with Rich Aromas and Flavors

Emeritus Vineyards - A Premier Sonoma Winery for Pinot Noir

Located in the picturesque Sonoma County, California, Emeritus Vineyards was founded in 1999 by renowned vintner Brice Cutrer Jones. His vision was to create outstanding New World Pinot Noir. With 140 acres of meticulously dry-farmed vineyards, Emeritus produces exceptional Pinot Noir from two distinguished sites: Hallberg Ranch and Pinot Hill.

At Emeritus Vineyards, estate-grown Pinot Noir reflects the unique terroir of California's coastal region.

Commitment to Sustainable Practices

Emeritus Vineyards emphasizes sustainable and organic dry-farming methods to nurture their vines and produce high-quality wines with complex aromas and flavors. Since acquiring Hallberg Ranch, the winery has invested in modern fermentation equipment and environmentally friendly practices. Today, the winery is managed by Brice’s daughter, Mari Jones, who continues the family legacy.

Three Distinct Vineyard Locations

The winery cultivates grapes across three vineyard sites: Pinot Hill, William Wesley, and Hallberg Ranch. The unique soils, climate, and coastal influences create ideal conditions for grape growth. Minimal intervention in the vineyards allows the grapes to mature fully, resulting in premium fruit. Harvesting begins at midnight to ensure optimal temperatures, with workers handpicking only the finest grapes. After a cold soaking process, the grapes are fermented in French oak barrels, enhancing the wines' natural flavors and adding depth and complexity.
