DOUBLE GOLD MEDAL – 95 PTS 2020 West Coast Wine Competition.  The 2018 Keller Estate Pinot Noir from Petaluma Gap is sourced from the rolling hills off of Route 116, enjoying a perfect balance of warm days and fog-cooled nights. Clone 115 with bright cherry flavors and rounded tannins, coupled with marine soils embodies the Petaluma Gap terroir. 

GOLD MEDAL – 92 PTS 2019 Harvest Challenge.  Our 2017 Sauvignon Blanc is from the Gianquinto Vineyard just west of the 101 in Santa Rosa, enjoying the warm days and cool nights of the Russian River Valley. The result is a focused wine with a nose of citrus, fresh stone fruit, balanced with crisp acidity for an enjoyable finish. 

GOLD MEDAL – 94 PTS 2020 Sommeliers Choice Awards.  The 2019 Barbera Rosé is from the Oakmont Vineyard in Shenandoah Valley in the Sierra Foothills. The Barbera grown here at elevation enjoys warm days and cool nights helping to balance lively fruit from its large berries with crisp acidity. Limited skin contact at press leads to a pale color, some floral aromas, strawberry notes with some minerality.

GOLD MEDAL – 94 PTS 2020 West Coast Wine Competition. Our 2017 Teldeschi Vineyard Zinfandel from Dry Creek Valley was made from fruit Ray Teldeschi expertly grew in perhaps the best region to grow the varietal. An exceptional growing season yielding a richly concentrated fruit that translates into a substantial yet elegant wine with deep color and should age well for at least a decade.
