Background
Although our vineyard started in 1996, the first year we sold Pinot Noir wine under our own D & L Carinalli Vineyards label was in 2003. The 2003 and 2004 wines are designated as Sonoma Coast. The 2005 bottling saw a change of Appellation to Russian River Valley. In 2006 we began our Pinot Noir wines as Russian River Valley, Estate Wine and that continues today.
