Winemakers Notes: This grape that hails originally from the Gavi region of Northern Italy grows beautifully in Northern California and produces an aromatic white loaded with texture and complexity. Fermented and aged in a mix of stainless steel and neutral oak barrels to retain freshness and varietal character while adding depth, this wine will appeal to white wine lovers of all stripes looking to explore something new with shellfish, basil pesto pasta, or a lazy afternoon by the pool.

Tasting Notes: "This wine is opulent with aromas of stone fruit, Key lime pie and green papaya. The midpalate has flavors of melon, green apple, orange zest, dried herbs and toasted almond that slip into minerality and a mouthwatering finish. It is exciting to taste a unique Italian varietal being grown in California. Pair with grilled prawns. 92 points." — Tonya Pitts, Wine Enthusiast

Vineyard:  Lost Slough Vineyard, nestled in the heart of the Clarksburg AVA, lies on land that was once beneath the sea, imparting a distinctive saline minerality to its wines. The vineyard’s shallow clay loam soils, scattered with ancient seashells, force vines to struggle, yielding intensely flavorful fruit. Cooled by the famed Delta Breeze and lingering coastal fog, this unique microclimate allows for slow, even ripening, resulting in wines of remarkable balance, freshness, and depth.
