This innovative White Pinot Noir tastes like no other. Jazzy white peach and nectarine stone fruit balanced by racy acidity dance across the palate. Fermented mostly in stainless, it went on to age for a year in Hungarian and French oak puncheons, bringing a weight and texture all its own. Off dry on the entry, it finishes mouthwatering and savory. 

Our 2019 Pinot Gris continues Lichen’s rich and racy take yet on this dazzlingly aromatic varietal. Grippy lemon and grapefruit dance out of the glass and leave your mouth awash in citrus joy. 

The laser focus of our 100% Pinot Gris starts with a honeyed sweetness on entry, then explodes with white peach, coriander, honey biscuit, and nectarines across the palate, then delivers a long wet gravel finish. After 32 months en tirage, this bubbly improves with a little air and is even better a day after being opened, if it lasts that long!

Our 2019 Estate Pinot Noir shows off the vineyard with best of vintage barrel selection, 22 months on oak with 50% new French and Hungarian from Francois Frere, Cadus, and Kadar. Aromas of brown sugar, black cherry, cola, and nutmeg jump from the glass. On the palate, maraschino cherries layer atop an earthy wet leaf note, with plush, lengthy tannins on the finish.

Our 2019 Moonglow Pinot Noir brings a refinement, focus, and beauty to the Moonglow lineup that shows off the maturity of Lichen's estate vineyard. Even in its youth, pitch perfect cherry notes let you know we grow it at the heart of Anderson Valley. 

Nine vintages in the making (2011-2019), this wine has grown every year in complexity and popularity. The Volume 8 ups the game with the blend spending more time in oak and receiving a new oak regimen similar to the Estate Pinot Noir. Exotic Indian spices meet sherried plums in the nose, with baked cherries, figs, and raspberries dancing across the tongue all wrapped in silky tannins.

The 2018 Les Pinots Noir & Gris follows the racy, focussed tradition of this bottling since its inception in 2012. With 70% of the fruit coming from sparkling wine press cuts this is an acid lover's dream. Add in the lemony citrus notes and a savory finish of crushed granite and you will see why our white wines are unique, none more than this gem.

Lichen’s tête de cuvée, the Grand Cuvée spent four and a half years en tirage. All that time on lees in the bottle delivers extraordinary complexity in the glass. A lightly toasted brioche and hazelnut greets the nose. Layer on layer of citrus flows over the palate. This dazzling sparkler will go toe-to-toe with any grower-producer or Grand Marque tête de cuvée vintage Champagne… we encourage you to compare for yourself with the “brown bag challenge”!

Lichen's 2017 White Pinot Noir delivers a gorgeous floral nose followed by a mouthfull of gravelly minerality and stone fruit. This unique wine, fermented mostly in stainless went on to age for a year in Hungarian oak puncheons, bringing a weight and texture all its own. Off dry on the entry, it finishes mouthwatering and savory.

While Lichen’s 2015 Moonglow Pinot Noir will certainly stand the test of time, we intentionally craft it to be quaffable in its youth. The 2015 Moonglow, made with 100% Lichen Estate fruit, fills the palate with a light cherry flush, lingers on the mid-palate, delicate and poised, finishing with anise and spice, and everything nice. The texture is sleek and refined, with caramel and vanilla bean accents at the core and ripe tart cherry and plum flavors. Velvety tannins provide framework and structure, and dark chocolate notes add complexity to the finish.
