Winemakers: Duncan Arnot Meyers and Nathan Lee Roberts
Variety: Trousseau
Farming: Sustainable with Organic Practices
Terroir: Coming from vineyards in Fort-Ross Seaview, the Russian River Valley and high up above Clear Lake, this wine pulls together Trousseau planted in a variety of soils and climates, including sandy loam, volcanic alluvial soils.
Vinification: Native yeasts for both primary and secondary fermentations. All of the lots were fermented using 100% whole cluster
Aging: 11 months in a combination of neutral French oak barrels, puncheons and foudre
Tasting Notes: A delightfully light and lightly earthy red, with aromas of freshly picked cherries, fresh pomegranate juice, hints of damp sandalwood and a light, acid-driven finish with light, soft tannins.
