Hiding in the background in the hat is Carlo Mondavi. In the fore his first release. Behind the camera our hats are off at an outstanding debut. Out of frame are a cadre of Champagne producers heaping praise & draining their glasses.

5 people found it helpfulOct 27th, 2014My brother and my first vintage of RAEN (rain) Pure expressions using neutral oak barrels, native yeasts, 70 percent whole cluster and an average of 15 days extended maceration... We picked between two and five AM in the cool of the night to retain fruit and flower. Tiny production of 90 cases so if you find a bottle I hope you enjoy!

Feb 15th, 2015Big fruit, initially lighter but added lots of weight with air. Really fascinating wine that should be better and more complex with a few more years in bottle.
