Balletto Vineyards
Balletto Vineyards produces Pinot Noir from California's North Coast, a region defined by cool coastal influence and ideal conditions for the variety. The winery's portfolio centers on vineyard-designated expressions: Burnside Road Vineyard, 18 Barrel, and Pelletti Vineyard Pinot Noirs each demonstrate the precision and depth the region affords. These wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Decanter, and Falstaff. Pinot Noir from the North Coast typically expresses bright acidity, silky tannins, and red fruit character shaped by maritime climate and varied soil. Balletto's focus on single-vineyard bottlings reflects the North Coast's terroir-driven approach to winemaking.
