About 95% of grapes sourced from Carneros, aged about 8 months on 1/3 new oak with 20% of wine going through malolactic fermentation. Aromas of ripe stone fruits with slight honey oak scents. On palate complex flavors of ripe apple, peach & lemon zest, balanced with good acidity & great mouthfeel. Long finish ending with fruit, wet stone and toasty character. Very nice, will age well.

Honey suckle pear notes with nice finish. Little oak.

Clean and precise. Stone fruits, melon, light citrus and white flower, and kiss of oak spices. Crisp acidity that at times feels a bit steely, but nicely textured body provides enough weight.
Fine Napa chard.
