WE ARE STEWARDS OF THE LAND. IT WAS HERE BEFORE US.WE WANT TO TAKE CARE OF IT NOT JUST TODAY, BUT FOR THOSE WHO COME AFTER US.
OUR WINEMAKING PHILOSOPHY
Winemaking is a dance between the powerful forces of nature and the measures we take in the vineyard and cellar to usher each vintage to its finest expression. Each year, our focus begins in the vineyard where we sustainably farm our two estate properties, 20 acres in the Russian River Valley & 43 acres in the Fountaingrove Grove District.
Between the two sites, we work with eleven different varieties and counting. An intimate understanding of each variety and block allows for careful considerations throughout the growing season, ultimately providing us with the premium fruit we have grown accustomed to working with. We also selectively source fruit from some of the finest heritage vineyards in Sonoma County to craft site-specific wines, celebrating the breadth of possibilities within our region.
In the cellar, we smell, taste, and listen to what the wine beckons, often requesting to simply be let down the path it set out on. Our white and rosѐ wines are crisp varietal expressions, seeing mostly stainless-steel barrel aging. Our red wines offer nuance, depth, and complexity. In the end, our goal is to craft wines to be shared over great meals with family and friends.
