About the manufacturer
Littorai
Littorai is a Californian winery specializing in the production of high-quality Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays. The name comes from Latin and means "coastline"—a reference to the maritime terroirs of California's coastal regions that the winery utilizes.
What makes Littorai special is its uncompromising focus on single-vineyard Wines. Instead of mass production, the winery relies on intensive collaboration with select vineyards such as Hirsch Vineyard or Charles Heintz Vineyard. These partnerships allow them to authentically express the unique characteristics of each site.
The winemaker behind Littorai follows a purist approach: minimal intervention in the cellar, natural fermentation, and respectful treatment of the raw materials. The result is Wines of impressive elegance, complexity, and aging potential. In every glass, you can recognize the terroir's signature and the meticulous craftsmanship.
At Wine In Time you will find a carefully curated selection of Littorai Wines that will transport you to the fascinating world of Californian coastal terroirs.

Wendling Vineyard Block E
The 2022 Littorai Wendling Vineyard Block E is an exceptional Pinot Noir from the legendary Littorai winery on California's Sonoma Coast. Ted Lemon, a pioneer of Burgundian-style winemaking in California, cultivates the Block E parcel in the Wendling Vineyard with meticulous care. The vines are rooted in cool, misty soils near the Pacific Ocean – ideal conditions for Pinot Noir with finesse and depth.
The grapes are hand-harvested, spontaneously fermented with wild yeasts, and aged in French oak barrels. Lemon works with minimal intervention: no fining, no filtration, only gentle racking. The result is a wine of remarkable clarity and precision that authentically reflects the character of the terroir.
On the nose, the Littorai Wendling Vineyard Block E 2022 displays dark cherries, raspberries, and a hint of forest floor. On the palate, it unfolds with a cool, silky texture, fine acidity, and restrained fruit. Salty minerality and spicy notes of thyme and black tea complete the picture. The finish is long, vibrant, and remarkably elegant.
At Wine In Time in Vienna, you can order this special Pinot Noir online and benefit from fast express delivery. Also discover our curated selection of Red Wines, featuring other rare Wines from around the world.
Serve the wine slightly chilled at 14–16°C with roast duck, wild salmon, or aged Gruyère cheese. It also pairs wonderfully with a simple mushroom risotto or sautéed porcini mushrooms.
