Tasting Notes: Violet and blueberry compote

A great expression of old heritage vines from Wirth Ranch weve harvested since 2011. With older and dry farmed vine plantings, you get more complexity, depth and structure, which we love! The outcome is darker fruit with lifting acidity. This years Valdigui has a luscious deep plum and elegant structure. This is a wine that stands out from the rest with the ability to slightly age. Wirth Ranch is located in the heart of Solano Countys Green Valley, between Napa and Suisun Valley. The dry-farmed Valdigui vines from Wirth Ranch were originally planted in 1948 and grow deep in the steep-sloped, iron-rich soils farmed organically by Steve Wirth. Destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks, when the wine was ready, we gently pressed into two neutral barriques to age for 10 months.

FUN FACT: Valdigui is still known as Napa Gamay to many farmers in California.
