Wild fermented, with 30% whole cluster in concrete pyramids before aging in oak and concrete. Elegant and perfumed, with roses and hibiscus framed in iron-mineral earth tones. Notes of Big cherries, tomato leaf, allspice, and salted cured meats. Dried herbs hang on for a long, elegant finish.
Buoyant, with an almost weightless mouthfeel, the luxurious liquid feels like a soft hand on a broad shoulder. Cranberries, cherries, and sweet tobacco light up, electric and focused.
Dusty vanilla. Peanut brittle, honeyed mango, banana, and crushed stone are delightfully layered flavors. This white is structured and well balanced, with enough weight to demonstrate its round and satisfying texture.
Beeswax and white flowers frame notes of kiwi and vanilla wafers. Lime zest gives a pleasing textural edge.
The vinous equivalent of a watercolor painting, this traditional-method brut of Mauzac reveals light brushstrokes of bruised apple, white peach, and lemon dappled with chalky minerality and sourdough toast—all framed by a frothy, almost delicate mouthfeel.
A brilliant wine, with sunshine-kissed mineral tones and vivid citrus. Its depth and complexity of style, its round mouthfeel and saline approach reflect its coastal influence. Notes of Mandarin orange, melon, and mango take elegance to a luxe level.
Steely with leesy richness and a bounty of plump-textured stone fruits. Underlying flinty notes meld with a creamy quality accented by lemon blossom, brioche, and burnt orange peel.
This 100% Tinto del Pais hails from a century-old vineyard 2900 feet above sea level. With 18 months in French oak and 24 months in bottle before release, it is bold and well-structured. Rocky soils are evident on the palate, with dusty tannins pacing like a tiger in a cage until it softens to a purr of boysenberry and dark chocolate.
