Vineyard Notes: Our Vernaccia is sourced from Santo Giordano Vineyard in the Los Carneros AVA in Sonoma County, a vineyard originally planted by Sue Smith's father. He was passionate about Italian varieties and brought budwood back from Italy during the 1970s. Only Sangiovese and Vernaccia remain of the original blocks, thanks to their high adaptability to our climate and soil. Los Carneros benefits from the Petaluma Gap Effect, where cold, maritime air is pulled through a gap in the Sonoma Coast range and empties into the San Pablo Bay. This cold wind system creates a unique climate that provides a much cooler growing region across the affected area. The soils are ancient raised seabed and alluvial, rocky clays.
