One Acre, Anderson Valley, Littorai Wines
This hilltop vineyard sits at 1,600 feet elevation in the mountains northeast of Boonville. Like Roman Vineyard, the winds from the northwest greatly affect the growing conditions which lead to some of the richest, most seductive and complex wines in our portfolio. In 1993, One Acre was the first vineyard designated Pinot Noir that we ever produced and in 2016 we had the opportunity to purchase this exceptional site from Rich Savoy, ensuring that this beautiful property will be part of the Littorai family forever. Prior to that, the fruit from this vineyard was purchased on a by-the-acre contract, the first of its kind in California. One Acre is farmed using organic materials and biodynamic methods, not certified.
