Our Estate Blend hails from the Talmage Bench region of Mendocino County. Previously farmed by four generations of the Giannecchini family, this vineyard was planted sometime between 1910 and 1920. The gravelly, loam soils and ideal climate contribute to the production of these ultra-premium wine grapes.
There’s something magical about old vine Italian varieties planted by California pioneer grape growers. The wines are bold, beautiful, dense and truly express the terroir. This wine pays homage to Mendocino’s Italian grape growing heritage. The acid draws a clear focused line across the palate reminiscent of the Old World, with firm tannins marking it Californian. It has aromas of cherries and red fruits surely to delight any meal.
