Please note that due to the limited nature of this wine,
there is a three bottle per person limit.
King Estate first introduced the ‘Domaine’ label in 1997 to
showcase fruit sourced exclusively from our 100% organically-grown
estate. Since the estate vineyard was planted in 1991, we have
closely observed each block’s development, and noted that many have
special character and uniquely express their micro-terroir. These
are the special blocks that through a meticulous lot selection
process find their way into our ‘Domaine’ bottlings, and sometimes
an entire lot or a portion of that lot is bottled on its own.
In 2008 Block 4D the ‘Blackjack’ block produced especially small
grapes with very concentrated flavors. The 4.8 acre 4D block is
planted to the early-ripening 777 clone, and is situated in a north
to east-facing swale of 800-900 ft elevation in the very southeast
corner of the estate vineyard. Uniquely trellised in the ‘droop’
system, the grapes receive elevated sun exposure throughout the
growing season.
Block 4D’s distinctive character earned the block its own bottling
and inclusion in our Domaine program. We hope you will enjoy this
special block designate bottling, as well as the contribution it
has made to our 2008 Domaine Pinot Noir.
