Proprietary White Wine

Proprietary White Wine
Napa Valley

We love white Bordeaux varietal wines with energy. They offer all the fruit intensity you’d expect from Napa Valley, as well as the minerality, salinity, and complexity that come from cooler climes. That’s why we chose Coombsville, in the southeastern reaches of the Valley, as the source of our white grapes. Nestled in the caldera of an ancient volcano and bordered on three sides by the foothills of the Vaca Range, Coombsville’s bowl-like topography holds onto cool, fog-tinged air swirling in from the San Francisco Bay. Cooler temperatures allow the fruit to stay on the vine longer, achieving the perfect balance of lush ripeness and vibrant acidity.

Our 2022 Proprietary White Wine is incredibly pure, aromatic, and expressive. The blend is inspired by our favorite white wines from Bordeaux, but proudly Californian. The grapes are harvested at night, whole-cluster pressed, fermented in barrel as individual components and aged on the lees for 8 months, then incorporated into a blend, for a total of 17 months aging. The barrels are a mix of neutral and new French oak and stainless steel, the combination working to preserve the freshness of the juice and round the edges just enough to provide a smooth polished texture. The pale white-golden hue belies the strength and intensity that resides in the wine. The finish is long and delicious. This is a wine that leaves you wanting more.
