Balanced freshness and minerality with depth and evolved structure.

Roughly 20% of the blend was fermented on skins and sees an extended maceration of one and a half months, a fairly rare practice for a white wine. The remaining 80% of the blend was directly pressed and fermented in neutral puncheon. Both of the two components were fermented naturally via native yeast and native bacteria. After a year in large Slovenien oak Botti the wine was bottled, followed by an additional year of bottle age.

Lost Hills Ranch sits on a lonely ridge in the Yorkville Highlands. Located near the southwest corner of Mendocino County. At 1500 feet of elevation, the soils are comprised of deep fractured sandstone with veins of schist. The vine roots work hard to push deep into the rock, and in turn, a powerful core can be found in the fruit grown here. Holistic and organic practices ensure a healthy site for now and for future generations to come.
