FARMING In my family, farming has been a tradition since arriving in California nearly 200 years ago. Today, farming is the lifeblood of our wines and the grounding element in creating the style of Pinot Noir for which we have become known. Böen, which means “the farm,” is a testament to the generations of family farmers that have come before me – these are my roots. SONOMA COUNTY, MONTEREY COUNTY, SANTA BARBARA COUNTY Böen draws its profile from the varied coastal winegrowing areas that are among California’s most sought after cool-climate appellations. Each area Boen originates from offers optimal growing conditions for this temperamental and early-ripening variety. This stretch of the California coastline is so geographically diverse that the various soil types, sub-climates, and elevations produce desirable and complex Pinot Noirs. To create our Böen Pinot Noir, we work closely with growers and vineyards in each region to blend a well-balanced wine. This wine shows its coastal California roots in its flavor, texture, and vibrant acidity.
