The wine exhibits high acidity, providing a refreshing brightness that balances its pronounced fruit intensity, while the tannins are firm yet approachable, adding structure to the wine. As you savor each sip, you'll appreciate its dry profile, making it a fantastic companion to hearty dishes like grilled lamb or a classic steak.

Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
