Doctors Vineyard is in the warmer end of the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA. Of course that's all relative because SLH is quite a cool AVA with a very long growing season. This long growing season creates grapes with tremendous character. Grapes from Doctors Vineyard show more bold fruit flavors than vineyards that are just a few miles away closer to Monterey Bay. The vineyard has multiple clones of Pinot Noir planted so this is one of those vineyards that will yield wines with great complexity and depth.
