Anderson Valley


ANNAHALA® - Anderson Valley Pinot Noir

Annahala® is located halfway between the towns of Philo and Boonville on Highway 128 in Mendocino County.  Taking advantage of the cool Pacific Ocean air that funnels from the “Deep End” of the Anderson Valley toward Boonville, Annahala® is ideally influenced to produce world-class Pinot Noir.  This, combined with expert development and viticulture, helps to make Annahala® an excellent showcase vineyard for Expression 39˚.
