About

FROM THE WINEMAKER

“Beautiful and bright aromas of lemon curd and apricot lift from the glass with floral hints of star jasmine. The palate has a refreshing acidity with a depth of midpalate weight that carries it through to a finish with flavors that match the aromas, along with a clean grapefruit note, for a perfectly balanced wine.”

– Stephanie Pope, Winemaker

VINTAGE NOTES

Vintage 2023 is characterized as one of the longest growing seasons in a decade. The mild weather lead to above-average crop yields. With all of the heavy winter rains the reservoirs were full for ideal conditions and saturated soil. The winter rains gave the vines much needed hydration as they woke up from their dormant winter, and because of the cooler vintage this will be bright and clean.

RECOMMENDED PAIRINGS

“Salty and sweet combinations, like fresh peaches wrapped in Jamón Serrano. Steamed shellfish with chorizo."

– Chad Hendrickson, Executive Chef
