The Inspiration: In our more recent and past travels to France, some of the most compelling wines have been Rhône white blends. We’ve always wanted to make a wine like this but was without the source of quality white Rhône grapes - from the right climate and terroir - until now. In February 2016 we grafted and planted our Estate Vineyard in the new Los Olivos District AVA to all Rhône varietals including 1.5 acres of the little known but beguiling Roussanne.
