Winemaker notes: While this wine was originally sourced from one small block of Sangiacomo’s renowned “Home Ranch,” the sources were expanded to include several of Sangiacomo’s best blocks, which add to the complexity of this wine.
The Sangiacomos are viticultural masters and multigenerational winegrowers. Their cool, windswept vineyard has an ideal location bordering San Pablo Bay where the grapes slowly mature, developing intense varietal character, while retaining excellent acidity and structure. The wine was fermented in French oak barrels, aged on its lees for eight months and underwent malolactic fermentation during the aging process.
