This bottling is dedicated to our grandmother Marjorie, who has always been a guiding light and inspiration for us. From the remote, rocky soils of the Sonoma Coast, this wine shines with depth and vibrancy.

Lively aromas of lemon pith, key lime, honeysuckle blossom, and summer-ripened nectarine jump from the glass, followed by crushed wet rock and distinct mineral tones that transport us to the coast where the vines are rooted. Bright citrus, stone fruit and beeswax are beautifully intertwined on the palate, reminding us of the pollinators that come alive in our vineyard, leading to a vibrant, zesty finish that balances richness and precision.

Professional Scores

97

Very complex, showing enticing aromas of nougat, dried apples and flint at first, turning to floral notes of lilacs and honeysuckle with a hint of smoke. Medium-bodied with some oily texture, it has a creamy yet refined palate and a steely mineral aftertaste. Vibrant and featherlight yet concentrated.
