Sonoma Vineyard Designates
Simpatico Ranch Chardonnay
Bennett Valley
An ideal Chardonnay vineyard. 50 year-old vines, planted in the volcanic soils of Sonoma County’s coolest micro-climate produce a tiny (1.5 – 2 tons per acre), textbook-perfect crop each year. Meursault-inspired winemaking leads to a stunningly mineral and delicious Chardonnay that is singularly expressive that plumbs the depths of the variety’s mind-boggling complexities.
Kanzler Vineyard Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley
Pinot Noir finds its nirvana tucked away in the Goldridge soils and rolling topography of the cool and foggy Sebastopol Hills. Kanzler is one of Sonoma’s undisputed Grand Cru sites. This terroir produces deeply fruited wines with dazzling spice-box complexities, wonderful acidity and undeniable focus and freshness. A masterclass in Pinot Noir.
Steiner Vineyard Syrah
Sonoma Mountain
Perched at 1,100 feet on the northwest crown of Sonoma Mountain—fog-affected mornings; sun-bathed afternoons, cooled by persistent coastal breezes; temperate evenings—Steiner is incomparable Syrah terroir. Geologically dramatic, the soils are moondust-like, littered with white shale, informing Syrahs of massive color and depth, with a palpable minerality.
