Wine Flight
Chardonnay - Perli Vineyard 2020
This is a Chardonnay lover's dream—a cool climate Chardonnay that Steve Alden grows in the harshest of environments 2000 feet above sea level, that include bears, mountain lions, cold winds from Pacific storms, and rocky soils. These elements give this wine its character and backbone, with a structure that almost vibrates on the palate. We whole-cluster pressed the grapes to tank, let them cold settle overnight, then racked off the heavy solids to barrel. Fermentations were 100% indigenous for both primary and secondary fermentation. We stirred the lees in both barrels weekly, until that moment when texture and natural acidity were in perfect harmony. This isn't a "fat" Chardonnay, but rather a wine that shows its beauty through its angularity and persistence.
Grand Vent Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020
This wine displays brooding dark blackberry, mulchy dampness like a forest floor, and we detect a touch of menthol, perhaps from the eucalyptus groves surrounding the vineyard.
Gibson Ranch Grenache 2020
Savor history in a glass. Each 100+ year old vine possesses roots that can reach down over 100 feet, drawing on layer upon layer of storied nuance—this wine has a level of minerality and complexity not possible in its younger counterparts.
