Mataro aka Mourvedere. The 2022 vintage presented one of my most significant logistical hurdles. A heavy crop across most vineyards coincided with warm fall weather, causing rapid sugar increase in the grapes. Remarkably, despite the elevated alcohol level the 2022 reds avoid any "hot" or boozy characteristics. Aged in 40% new French oak for 10 months. This brooding wine displays earthiness, white pepper, and red fruit.

A light and crisp rose made from "scraps". The Scavenger is a wine that embrases curiosity and resourcefulness. Often misunderstood, scavengers inspire us to uncover the value in otherwise be overlooked. Raise your glass to a wine that celebrates the relentless pursuit of the unknown.

The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc originates from Skyline Vineyard Block 6. Initially not included in our 2023 plan, we were delighted to received a mid-harvest all offering these grapes. Ever since my time in New Zealand, I've been eager to work with this fantastic varietal.

Our 2023 Chardonnay was a vintage of experimentation. Machine-picked, the grapes were divided into three distinct styles: unbaked, hyper-oxidized, and traditional barrel fermentation. The Unoaked Chardonnay ids crisp, clean, and refreshingly light. A style I truly enjoy. The "unstable" part reflects a minimal intervention approach to fining and cold stabilization. This means you might encounter some haziness or tartrate crystals in the bottle over time. These are harmless and simply a conversation starter about this particular wine making process.

This Syrah was hand-picked, the grapes were placed whole (without destemming or crushing) into a 300-gallon tank. Sealed shut, the tank was then purged with CO2 and left undisturbed for one month. Carbonoic maceration is a winemaking technique where whole grapes ferment from the inside out in a carbon dioxide-rich environment. This method promotes softer tannins and results in a fruit-forward wine meant for early enjoyment.

The Casi is an easy drinking red wine meant to be served chilled.
