Communiqué sur l'adhésion au printemps/été 2025

We are tremendously excited to share our new releases with you. The recommended package of new releases from Napa Valley will include our 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, 2022 Reserve Chardonnay, and 2022 Estate Bottled Red Wine, but as always, you can customize your shipment simply by responding to this email or reaching out to Sean or Juliana directly. Shipments will begin the third week of March, weather permitting.

2023 Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley

We gently whole-cluster press the fruit and ferment the juice in concrete on native yeast for five weeks. The wine then ages seven months in new oak barrels and stainless steel drums. Mellow aromas of acacia and peach juice. White rose, lemon-lime, and vanilla bean, with a soft and lingering finish reminiscent of apricots and white plums. Delightful now, the wine will gain complexity and depth over the next five years.

2022 Reserve Chardonnay Napa Valley

We pick our Chardonnay by hand, at dawn. The grapes are whole-cluster pressed and the juice fermented in one-half new French oak barrels for eightteen months. Full bodied, with bright, fully tropical notes — pineapple, apple juice — and vanilla on the nose, and a softly-integrated almost anise-seed like note on a juicy finish.

2022 Napa Valley Estate Bottled Red Wine

Our estate vineyard is planted to a proprietary blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, in a sand-based Haire clay loam soil on a slight eastern-facing slope. We harvest at the pinnacle of phenolic ripeness to ensure a lush, concentrated, and structured red wine that will age for over a decade. We manually sort the fruit for quality, and ferment in stainless steel tanks for an extended period. The young wine then ages twenty-two months in all new French oak barrels. Delicately sweet blackberry flavors with notes of soft leather and tobacco, coccoa and dark roast coffee that lingers on the finish.
