About the Winery
Moshin Vineyards and Winery began in 1989 as the dream of Rick Moshin, a San Jose State University math instructor – and with theMoshin Family’s purchase of a ten-acre Pinot Noir Vineyard located in the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County, California. The Moshin Vineyards of today features a unique 4-tier Gravity Flow Winery and control of 28 acres of grapes – mostly Pinot Noir. The tasting room is open daily to the public and tours of the winery can be made by appointment.

The goal at Moshin Vineyards is to carefully guide the grapes through the winemaking process and bring you a wine that expresses a truthful view into the heart of the vine. Our farming methods are sustainable, winemaking philosophy is “minimally invasive,” and we have established energy-saving practices through the use of gravity-flow and solar energy.

Northeast Wine Brokers is proud to be the exclusive agent for the following Moshin Vineyards wine in Connecticut:

2006 Pinot Noir, Molinari Vineyard, Sonoma County
Big and luscious, spicy and bold. Bright cherry, pomegranate, cocoa and spice. Dried cranberry and earth flavors. Firm tannins and great acidity will hold up well to time and many foods.

Pinot master Rick Moshin planted 40 rows of Dijon Clone vines in this single vineyard that’s right on the border of Dry Creek and Russian River Valleys. This is a ripe, spicy and delicious Pinot Noir that shows the richness and depth of flavor that Sonoma Pinot is so famous for. Sensational wine starts in the vineyard. Rick Moshin’s winemaking philosophy reflects as much of Mother Nature as possible. The naturally low pH in the mature grapes makes balanced, fruit-forward, yet ageable wines that pair beautifully with food. Specializing in Pinot Noir, this boutique winery produces scintillating wines in their new gravity flow facility that allows the gentlest handling from vineyard to bottle. “Molinari” represents Moshin’s best value Pinot Noir so don't miss it. Very Limited.
