Storm Haven vineyard is the 107 acre home and heart of Synchromesh. With large elevation changes and varying geology, we are able explore very different expressions of Riesling and Cabernet Franc from each block.
Up until 2023, we only produced a red Pinot Noir from the plantings at Storm Haven Vineyard. With the substantial wildfire activity of 2023, we decided to pick a portion of fruit early, specifically for a Rose as an effort to hedge against the potential for smoke contamination in the red wines. This provided a great opportunity for Alan to return to making a wine that he loves and with fruit from some of our most coveted vineyard blocks. Volume is small, but the texture, balance and fruit delicacy of the resulting Pinot Noir Rose is brilliant and one of Alan's favourite wines that we have produced to date.
