Description

Custom grown and vinified by our well-known sources under the guidance of Hunt & Ryde Winemaker Guy Davis

Vintage Notes:
The 2023 vintage in Dry Creek Valley is widely considered exceptional, with producers describing it as a “dream vintage” due to its excellent acidity, balanced fruit flavors, and long, cool growing season, resulting in wines with vibrant character and remarkable complexity, particularly for Grenache; this was largely attributed to a wet winter which provided ample water to the vines, leading to a delayed harvest compared to average years.

Vinification:
The grapes were sorted and whole-cluster pressed, and received a 60-day fermentation in stainless steel, to express the purity and crisp expression of the fruit and the vineyards.
