Vineyards & Viticulture
These grapes come from several small organically farmed vineyards throughout the appellation. While each site bears unique qualities, all share the same parent soil: ancient marine sediment. Proximity to the cool ocean permits a longer growing season than in much of California.

Harvest & Vinification
Made from a collection of many small, native yeast ferments in open-top tanks, 100% whole clusters. Each fermentation is treated individually, with daily tasting to assess the maceration and extraction. After the primary fermentation completes, the wine is pressed and stored in neutral French oak barrels for nine months.
