100% Picpoul de Pinet
Lodi, California
Jahant AVA
Winemaking:
Hand-picked and immediately whole-cluster pressed and allowed to settle overnight with a light racking. Fermentation carried out in stainless steel vats. No MLF to retain fresh acidity. Aged for 3 months on lees in stainless steel before bottling in February 2024. Unfined and unfiltered, expect some sediment.
Tasting Note:
Our 2024 Picpoul has aromas of lemon rind, grapefruit, fresh fennel, and toasty almonds. On the palate, this wine has a smooth texture and vibrant acidity. This wine is driven by its crisp acid and savory, sassy, almost salty finish. Try with gorgonzola, pear, walnuts and almonds.
Alcohol: 12.5%

Tasting Note:
Deep and vibrant, our 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon is round with a long finish. Fresh pine, forest floor, blackberry, and currant aromas. Strawberries and tart cherries on the mouth with hints of dry leather. Full-bodied without being too heavy. Try with grilled steak and chimichurri.

Our 2023 Pinot Noir comes from Los Carneros near the foggy northern reaches of the San Pablo Bay. The wine is bright, fresh, and expressive.
