Introducing
Our New Collection of
Exceptional Wines
With 12 estate vineyards in the best AVAs in Sonoma County, from the cool Russian River Valley to the warmest Knights Valley, Rodney Strong’s vineyards grow the highest quality grapes from the most extraordinary sites in the world. Our estate vineyards allow us to cultivate vines and grow grapes in an intentional, grape-to-glass, dedicated manner with impeccable detail and attention paid to creating the best wines from Sonoma County.
SVP of Winemaking & Winegrowing , Justin Seidenfeld set out to create varietally specific wines that build a complete and balanced representation of what makes these AVAs such ideal growing regions for these varietals. With an emphasis on sense of place – or terroir – Justin has assembled a collection of wines that are unlike anything else from Sonoma County. A meticulous eye and deep reverence for our craft is at the heart of each wine we make, and these small production wines highlight the pedigree of our most loved sites in Russian River Valley and Knights Valley.
Exemplary Wines from Our Winemaker’s Favorite Sites
Russian River Valley
Justin recently found one of his favorite sites for our newly crafted Russian River Chardonnay and Pinot Noir on our newest vineyard, River West, located in the heart of the Middle Reach neighborhood of Russian River Valley.
This low riverside bench vineyard is home to 335 acres of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc. The terrain is gently sloping and beautifully diverse, allowing us to meticulously plant each block to highlight the unique characteristics of a varietal. We specifically selected Wente clones for Chardonnay and Mount Eden for our Pinot Noir for unparalleled precision and to create a true representation of the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the iconic Russian River Valley.
Knights Valley
Another of Justin’s favorite sites sits further north and east in the famed warmer hills of Knights Valley. Justin crafted one of the very best expressions of Cabernet Sauvignon from this sweet spot that exemplifies the taste profile and terroir we’ve come to expect from Knights Valley.
With hot days and cool nights, Knights Valley is the warmest AVA in Sonoma County whose swing in temperature elicits some of the best wines – most notably, boldly elegant Cabernet Sauvignon. This site was chosen for its volcanic soils, desirable temperature range and unique ability to yield fruit that results in a finished wine of complexity, firm tannins and balanced acidity – a classic representation of this beloved vineyard site.
