Nose

The nose presents elderflower blossoms and light citrus with a hint of stone fruit.

Palate

On the palate is something quite different; crisp asian pear prevails. The fruit and floral notes are balanced by light acidity and a rich toasty vanilla oak warmth to round out the finish.

Winemaking

Our vineyard partners for this wine are local Sonoma boys Ned Hill and Matt Stornetta of La Prenda Vineyards. They came to us with a new vineyard they were developing a few years back so we decided to jump in and give it a try. Hailing from from the cool Delta-Clarksburg region, also with a touch Sonoma Carneros, we opted for the minimalist approach - cool fermentation, light oak integration, lower alcohol.
