Wine Details
Price:
$55.00 per bottle
Description:
It's odd that twenty-two years after planting our first vines, we are releasing our first Estate wine. But consider the spirit of the concept behind and beyond the narrow legal definition of "Estate." We have always been about total control from dirt to the dinner table. Our Carneros wines are, in essence, "Estate" wines. However, in the eyes of the law, only wines produced from grapes grown on vineyards adjacent to the winery where they are crushed are considered "Estate" wines. Since our winery is in the Stags Leap District, not the Carneros, we can not call our Carneros wines "Estate Grown." So, despite the fact that our wines are grown solely on our own land, our little four-and-one-half-acre hillside vineyard behind the winery in the Stags Leap District is our only "Estate" vineyard.
