The winery remains committed to French Colombard, honoring its heritage with this wine. Wet stone, apple and lemon distinguish it most, both in terms of aromatics and taste. Crisp and refreshing, it’s a fun wine to begin the night, served chilled and shared.

Winemaking
The grapes come from a vineyard on the east side of Windsor in the Russian River Valley. The grapes were whole cluster pressed with native fermentation and the lees were stirred occasionally to lend creaminess to the mid palate. The wine was aged for 5 months in neutral French oak barrels.
