Winemaker Notes: 

"Aromas of orange blossoms, apricot, and sweet cream lead to a palate of fresh citrus, ripe pear, and white flowers with a pleasing mineral finish. 

This wine comes from a unique site high in the Sierra Foothills just outside of the town of Murphys. The vines are own-rooted and planted in 1974 in schist soils over a limestone bedrock and was recently purchased by Matthew Rorick and his family. The vine age, elevation, and rocky soils create incredibly low yielding vines with the tiniest of clusters.

The grapes were hand harvested and gently pressed using a long Champagne press cycle. Juice was transferred to neutral barrels and fermentation occurred spontaneously. The wine received a small amount of sulfur immediately before bottling.

Alcohol: 13.5%
