As usual, the Trousseau Gris is your "lean and mean" choice. Bright, tightly focused and super vibrant. Already it reminds us of freshly cut lemons, stone fruits and bergamot. A clean and concise minerality anchors the mid palate.

Highlights
  • Varietal percentages: 100% Trousseau Gris
  • Vineyard(s): Fanucchi Wood Road Vineyard
  • Vineyard Notes: The 100-year old Fanucchi-Wood Road Vineyard is located on about seven acres along a slight rise off Wood Road in the Russian River Valley appellation of Sonoma County. It is dry-farmed and has been hand-tended by the Fanucchi family for the last 29 years. The vineyard is head trained, but the Fanucchis have raised the gnarled vines from just above ground level to chest height. This modification appears to provide greater sun exposure and air circulation and to have reinvigorated the old vines, enhancing the production of high-quality, old vine fruit.
  • Farming: dry-farmed

Winemaking Highlights
We choose to press the grapes the moment they arrive at the winery, opting for a fresh white wine style. Pressed lightly to avoid any bitterness, the juice is transferred to stainless steel barrels. We age the wine on its lees, and assemble and bottle the blend in February. The wine does not go through malo-lactic fermentation, has no oak influence and has no residual sugar.
Fermentation
The wines ferment at low temperatures and can take as long as 6 weeks to ferment to dryness.
