Winery Exclusives

Our newly introduced Viewfinder series was inspired by Jack’s photography and is comprised of limited-edition wines. This wine is an exceptional expression of Sauvignon Blanc grown in our estate vineyards for this series.

The Sauvignon Blanc was sourced from our Cuttings Wharf vineyard located in the cooler, southern part of the valley, Los Carneros and from our Maple Lane vineyard, located in the warmer northern region of the valley, Calistoga. The cooler, southern part of the valley gives us sauvignon blanc with bright citrus characters, flinty minerality, and balanced acidity, while the warmer northern region brings out tropical notes.

Our Annahala Ranch sits on 60 acres in the southern end of Mendocino County’s Anderson Valley. This former apple orchard, with its closer proximity to the Pacific Ocean compared to its sister vineyard, Apple Barn, spends more time in fog. Vines at our Annahala Ranch are planted in loamy soils and represent a selection of high-quality pinot noir clones, including Dijon 114, 667 and 777, and clone 828. This diversity of clones enhances the wine’s complexity: Dijon clones tend to impart perfume and intense black cherry characters, while clone 828 contributes elegant texture and a hint of dried rose petals.

Our Cuttings Wharf Chardonnay comes exclusively from our Carneros vineyard of the same name. Here, at the southern end of Napa Valley, cool Pacific fog regularly blankets the vines, creating an ideal climate for gently ripening premier Chardonnay grapes. Frequent breezes coupled with the fog make Carneros the coolest appellation
