Additional Information

This Pinot Meunier comes from one of the oldest continuously farmed areas in the Russian River Valley AVA. The Dommen Family Vineyard has been in continuous production for over 100 years. We began working with the Dommen Family in 2018 when we made our first vintage of BRUT NAT, Sparkling Wine from a solera of the 2018 and 2019 vintages. In 2021 Tracey made her first red Pinot Meunier and this ethereal and nervy red wine is perfect for all things summer.

About Donkey & Goat

Donkey & Goat was founded in 2004 on ecological principles driving decisions in both the vineyard and the cellar, which was quite a few years before the term Natural Wine was coined in America! Known for being pioneers and one of the first to list ingredients on the label, our wines are handcrafted at our Berkeley winery from organic and biodynamically farmed vineyards in the Sierra Nevada, Mendocino County and Napa Valley. We follow the same ethos in making the wines resulting in wines that are vibrant, alive, and best enjoyed around a table full of food circled with family and friends.
