This pack is the introduction to our Future Wine style. With Syrah, Albarino and an unusual Rhone blend, we try to imagine what the world of wine would be like if everything turned out differently. What if Hermitage was on an island? What if Albarino first flourished among the Morros of coastal California? What if the Pope never put his house in Avignon and instead moved to Tain? To accompany these thoughts of a totally different world than the one we know, we’ve selected Diane Cook’s Booker Finalist Novel “The New Wilderness” - a complex story set in the near future, where humans relationship with nature is tested as well as the relationship between mothers and children are explored under pressure. The wines and the book will enliven your mind and your dinner conversations, guaranteed. Thanks for giving us a shot!

Offer #3 : Endless River Gruner Veltliner Case Deal. Under $20/btl
12 bottles 2018 Endless River Gruner Veltliner, Paragon Vineyard, Edna Valley 12.8% ABV
“This wine slaps. And despite my natural urge to avoid complimenting you, it seems unavoidable that I tell you this is good.”
-A well-known importer of Austrian wine.
I love Gruner Veltliners and we drink them often. The combination of fruit, complexity and versatility are tough to beat. The rows for this Gruner come from right next to Graham Tatomer’s and while our expression is a bit more mouthwatering than his, it’s obviously the prime part of the site. This wine is in a great spot right now, with citrus zest, mint, tonic water, green pear and slate character. The finish is really malic and the objective was to capture a Sancerre/SB style acidity with pith and juiciness. Complex and chuggable at the same time. I repeat, this wine has acid for DAYZ. We made 189 cases in stainless steel.
Regular Price: $336

Offer #4 : Futures: 6 bottles 2019 Diamond Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
2019 Untitled Cabernet Sauvignon, Mader Vineyard, Diamond Mtn, Napa, CA - This vineyard sits on the exact border of Diamond Mountain District and Sonoma and is closest to Armstrong Ranch (half a mile), an old site that is used at Lerner Project, at Provenance as a single vineyard, and was a St. Clement Vineyard designate a long time ago. AR also makes up a little bit of Beringer’s Private Reserve Cabernet Program. This is a 35-40 year old vineyard that faces east, is planted pretty widely spaced and information on clone was never kept. We picked at 25.5 brix and put it into new medium toast barrels from Saury and Atelier CF. The wine is concentrated and fairly modern profile Diamond Mountain character - red and purple fruit, floral tones and less firm than Diamond Creek or Von Strasser. I’d compare the wine as it tastes right now to Andy Erickson’s work at Arietta. I think Aaron did a great job and we plan to produce more Napa wines as his style suits our fruit up here. Three Barrels Made.

Offer #5 : Futures: 12 bottles 2019 Briarwood Vineyard Malbec, Paso Robles
2019 Untitled Malbec, Briarwood Vineyard, Paso Robles - This is a large vineyard in the Templeton Gap amidst rolling hills, clay soils and with the big diurnal shift the area is known for. It produced a really supple, varietally perfect Malbec with pressed flower tones, ample red and black plum and a finish that’s lightly herbal and tannic. The objective here was to do something like the new wave of Argentine producers - ripe but elegant and with less reliance on whomping, toasty, astringent oak. I really love the flavors of Malbec but I think there’s too much extreme winemaking - cheap, tanky, chipped wines or massively oaked trophy wines. We tried to style it a bit in a “Margaux” fashion - amply fruited but delicate and accessible - and clearly differentiated from other Bordeaux varieties. This was aged in once-filled barrels. Malbec doesn’t need to be a cheaper version of Cabernet to be awesome. We were inspired by Bodega Noemia and Bodega Aleanna (El Enemigo).
