This dynamic duo is classic California: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and sustainability!
Wine Flight
Alta Orsa Hafner Vineyard Chardonnay 2022
Mineral aromas in the wet granite spectrum are followed by hints of flamed orange peel and oyster brine. The palate is voluminous without viscosity as it is balanced by a crisp acid profile. Well-integrated flavors of lemon zest and crème brûlée, with a long flinty finish.
Estate Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Dark mineral tones are reminiscent of our slate soils, accompanied by hints of graphite, dark chocolate, vanilla, and blackberry jam. Full-bodied, loads of dark fruit, round velvety tannins, and lively backbone, finishing with epic length. Deep garnet-purple colored.

About the Winery
Located in Hopland, CA Alta Orsa is the story of land, the vision and labor of their small team — led by their winemaker Martin Bernal-Hafner. The core chapter of their story is centered on a holistic approach to farming. As stewards of this 160-acre mountain property, they tend to 12-acres of hillside vineyards with regenerative organic practices — treating their soils as a living ecosystem and nature as our partner. Patience, observation, science, and experimentation guide their approach. Since the planting of their high-density vineyard in the late 1980s, they have practiced no-till farming, minimal organic sprays, cover cropping, no tractors between the rows, and no herbicides under the vine. They sincerely believe this philosophy preserves the unique sense of place and leads to wines that are classic, elegant, and worth laying down.
