Aaron Pott and Joseph Carr leapt at the opportunity to work together in producing this bold Bordeaux-style Merlot. The grapes are sourced from select vineyards in Napa’s prestigious Carneros AVA. Aaron’s experience working in Bordeaux along with a shared philosophy of producing elegant and complex yet approachable and balanced wines is evident in this offering
The wine features aromas of black cherry, chocolate, mint, root beer, vanilla, cedar, and roast beef. On the palate, a soft attack of roast meat, cherry, chocolate pudding, and sage is highlighted by a medium body and food-friendly acidity, leading to a textured finish.

This Chardonnay is sourced from the moderately cool and foggy Carneros AVA, which spans the foothills of the Mayacamas and ensures excellent freshness and acidity. The wine undergoes barrel fermentation as well as sur lie aging in 20% new French oak, both of which contribute a creamy texture and complexity.
The bouquet is intensely aromatic and features notes of ripe peach and lemon. Flavors of toffee and almonds emerge on the palate, bolstered by lively acidity, a creamy mouthfeel, and a long finish.
