Item Description
CIRQ is the estate based boutique winery founded by Michael Browne of Kosta Browne. The paragraphs below outline his passion for the project and his dedication to his craft.
We farm two estate vineyards and will produce a single estate Pinot Noir from each. Production will be extremely limited for the simple reason that CIRQ is an estate-driven program. We’ve done this with one goal in mind: to provide enthusiasts with wines of uncommon breeding that delight their senses and connect them to these special places.
"Treehouse is hard to figure out. The vineyard is located eight miles from the Pacific Ocean and yet, 100 yards away, lies a stand of coastal cypress. Nobody can explain it. Why those trees thrive in that place, when every other tree is either a redwood or a fir, is a mystery. Or perhaps, an omen. The vineyard sits an elevation of 750 feet. Elevation is key. Too high and the vines get too stressed. Too low and they get too vigorous. Because it’s above the fog line, Treehouse receives more hours of sunshine (longer degree-days in wine-speak) than most anywhere else in the Valley. In spite of being above the fog, the site’s aspect lets it enjoy all of the fog’s cooling effects. It’s a phenomenon you just have to see for yourself."
