This flagship Pinot Noir is a pure representation of the coastal terroir in Monterey County.

The name “Submarine Canyon” is a geographical reference to the deep underwater sea canyon located in the Monterey Bay. This deep sea canyon is the deepest sea canyon along the west coast and measures over a mile in depth.

The marine influence from this cold underwater submarine canyon provides the ideal climate for growing premium Pinot Noir grapes.

Joyce Pinot Noir Submarine Canyon 2023

The fruit for this Pinot Noir was harvested from several vineyards surrounding our winery in the Arroyo Seco AVA. This AVA is recognized as having the longest growing season in California.

Strong daily winds that bring cool fog from the Monterey Bay allow the grapes to spend more time on the vine building flavor, complexity and acidity. Extremely rocky well-drained alluvial soils are the base for creating wines processing freshness & minerality.

The combination of sand, granite, and shale loam soils with the ever present marine influence provide the ideal conditions for growing Pinot Noir.

Reviews

Wine Enthusiast – “If preserving freshness is the game, then this Joyce Pinot Noir is a winner. The nose pops with sharp aromas of raspberry, clipped thyme and wet slate. The palate follows suit with snappy, tart flavors of cranberry and raspberry that are dusted in pinches of white pepper dust and sprinkled sage.” (93 Pts)
