The wines in this collection are primarily from Sonoma County, with most vineyards located within the distinct neighborhoods of the Russian River Valley appellation. These sites are exceptional—whether for their placement on slopes and ridges, the presence of rare old vines or unique clones, or the dedication of growers with decades of proven excellence.

In the western hills of the Russian River Valley, the small Green Valley appellation is one of Sonoma County’s coolest regions. Evening fog blankets push over from the Pacific Ocean to temper the warm summer days. These optimal conditions extend the growing season, encouraging flavor concentration in the berries while mineral rich soils infuse the fruit with nuanced flavors.
