Winemaker Notes:

Select vineyards form the Western Sonoma Coast are our most affordable, but by no means less in character and complexity. These vineyards are cooler climate and so the wine is fresher, with highly focused fruit purity and delineation. Again, puncheon and open top fermenters and like the others, whole berry fermentation.

The wine is vibrant and complex with subtle dark fruits and berries, grandmother’s cherry pie, flowers, minerals, and a slight touch of rain-soaked earth, intertwined with a balance and very pleasing easy-going luxury. Should have been priced higher but what the hell. —JAYSON WOODBRIDGE
