LAST BOTTLE

Six clones, one dry-farmed hillside, zero chill...App users get first dibs on this one! 93 POINTS and under $30 makes this site-specific bottling too good to miss! 

App people, listen up, because this one's for YOU and only you. No website refresh, no public scramble — just a clean, quiet, 93-POINT drop reserved exclusively for the loyal souls smart enough to have the Last Bottle App already loaded on their phones. While the rest of the wine world is out there paying FULL retail ($70, for the record) for this single-vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot, you're about to walk away with it for $29. That's better than HALF off, good people, and it's happening in this little app-only corner of the universe where the deals hit different.

Let's talk pedigree, because this is the real deal. Emeritus was founded in 1999 by Brice Cutrer Jones — a literal Air Force fighter pilot who, after presumably mastering actual top-gun maneuvers, decided his second act would be founding Sonoma-Cutrer and THEN Emeritus. The man clearly doesn't do anything halfway. These days the reins are in the hands of his daughter, Mari Jones, who grew up running around these very dry-farmed rows and now leads with that rare blend of sharp business sense and salt-of-the-earth farmer soul. In the cellar, winemaker Keith Hammond keeps things laser-focused: Emeritus makes ONLY Pinot, ALL of it estate grown, ALL dry farmed, no exceptions, no distractions. 

This 100% Pinot Noir comes off Pinot Hill in the Sebastopol Hills, a cool, foggy stretch of the Sonoma Coast that makes Pinot Noir throw tantrums in the BEST possible way. Six clones go into the blend — 115, Hyde, Cruz, 667, Elite, and Pommard — aged eleven months in 41% new French oak, then bottled unfined and unfiltered for maximum personality. It opens with this beautifully floral potpourri of rose petals and peonies, a dash of lavender, some soul-satisfying heady incense, then a salty sea breeze carrying you straight into a flavor-packed wave of ripe strawberries, baked plum tarts, dusty new leather, and spiced pomegranate tea. It's voluptuous, exotic, and frankly showing off a little — in the best conceivable way.

This is the kind of allocation that NEVER makes it to a public daily offer — App-exclusive, CRAZY LIMITED, and built to disappear the second word gets out. So get it while the getting's good, snag four bottles for free shipping, and enjoy the quiet satisfaction of knowing you scored 93 point, dry-farmed, single-vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot for $29 a bottle while everyone else is still scrolling the website wondering where it went!

While it lasts!

”This 100% Pinot Noir from Pinot Hill Vineyard in the Sebastopol Hills on the Sonoma Coast blends six clones—115, Hyde, Cruz, 667, Elite, and Pommard. Aged eleven months in 41% new French oak, it is bottled unfined and unfiltered. The wine is bold, tart, and structured, bursting with cherry fruit, cherry wood, incense, tangerine zest, and grapefruit pith. While the bouquet is generous and expressive, the palate is more lively and zesty, focused, and linear—a vibrant, food-friendly Pinot Noir. Founded by Brice Cutrer Jones in 1999, Emeritus Vineyards is a Pinot-focused producer utilizing dry-farmed vineyards (Hallberg Ranch in Russian River Valley and Pinot Hill on the Sonoma Coast). -Cristaldi & Co.
