****About Metrick Wines
Metrick is my personal laboratory for wine exploration—my attempt to wrap my brain around wine as much as one can in a single lifetime. I’m also the owner of Alexander Jules, my Spanish wine import company and label of barrel selected sherries.
Metrick wines are made in a fresh, but ageworthy, style, sourced primarily from vineyards with significant coastal influence–they work wonderfully at the table. Vineyards selected and harvest decisions made to encourage lively acidity and earthy, herbal and floral aromatics.
