This wine has weight and body, yet it's also fresh and lifted with zingy notes of ripe lemon, grapefruit, and even a tickle of tropical pineapple.
Whole cluster pressed, native fermentation in French oak barrels. No fining or filtering. Aged 9 months in barrel.
Fruit is a blend of Bien Nacido Vineyard and Riverbench Vineyard. Planted 1973, own rooted.
