Production notes
The 2.56-acre Holtermann Vineyard, located just north of Annapolis, CA (population 200) and five miles inland from the captivating Sea Ranch coastal community, is truly farming on the edge. Its proximity to the ocean moderates daily high temperatures and diurnal fluctuations, leading to consistent seasons and slow, balanced fruit development.
Tasting notes
Hints of blood orange, cranberry, and cinnamon stick but, mostly, it tastes like standing in the middle of the vineyard on a foggy wet morning while breathing in fresh redwood twigs and drinking in the layers of natural history beneath your feet.
