Story
Nestled just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean, Edna Valley is one of California’s coolest winegrowing regions. Morning fog and refreshing coastal breezes drift through the valley, moderating the sunny afternoons and creating an exceptionally long growing season. These ideal conditions allow the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly, developing vibrant acidity and layered flavor complexity. Ancient volcanic and marine-based soils further shape the wines, imparting distinctive minerality, elegance, and depth to the fruit.

Tasting Notes
Bursting with lively flavors of golden pineapple, succulent white peach, and ripe pear, this wine delivers remarkable intensity framed by a silky, refined texture and an elegant, lingering finish. The famed Goldridge soils impart layers of earthy minerality and nuanced complexity, while delicate notes of toasted baking spice and velvety vanilla add richness, sophistication, and aromatic charm to the palate.
