Description

Owned by Bay Area venture capitalist Ori Sasson, this tiny jewel of a vineyard is perched high on Sonoma Mountain where growing conditions are best suited to cool-climate grapes such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The vineyard produces very low yields that translate into intense flavors. For the last two years, the vineyard has been managed by Ulises Valdez—possibly the most well-known grower in Sonoma. Ulises' is know as the "David Abreu" of Sonoma County grows grapes for such well-known Chardonnay producers as Paul Hobbs and Mark Aubert.

Wine Style: Aromas of stone fruit, jasmine, minerals and lemon zest. Dry and nervy, with brisk acidity and a saline nuance giving energy and lift to its citrus and orchard fruit flavors. Vibrant and impressively pure chardonnay.
