TJ EvansTJ Evans recently joined the Domaine Carneros winemaking team to head up the still wine production, with emphasis on Pinot Noir. He has just returned from Chile where he spent the last 3 years developing a Chardonnay and Pinot Noir ranch at the southern end of Chile’s winegrowing region. Pinot Noir has been the common theme throughout his career. After completing his MS at Davis in 1997 he began his career at La Crema winery in the Russian river. The next stop was Dry Creek where he continued to work with Pinot Noir and also crafted vineyard designate Zinfandels for Alderbrook winery. “Domaine Carneros was an easy choice because I knew I could apply my 10 years of Pinot experience to the still wines while also integrating the use of Pinot Noir in a way new to me – the production of sparkling wine”, comments TJ.
