New Releases
2025 Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley
This 2025 Sauvignon Blanc, complemented by 18% Sémillon, is an amazing aromatic amalgam of pineapple, lime, grapefruit, passion fruit, and peppermint, woven together with white currant, chalk dust, and an array of herbs and flowers.
2023 Intergalactic Rain Cabernet Sauvignon, Rock Block Series
The 2023 Intergalactic Rain is a titan of depth, pouring a saturated, opaque purple that heavily coats the glass. The nose is an evocative collision of petrichor and coal dust, evolving into notes of toasted spice and savory herbs like cardamom, sage, and rosemary.

2023 Beckstoffer To Kalon Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
The delicious 2023 Beckstoffer To Kalon opens with a complex tapestry of blackberry liqueur, crème de cassis, and violet, layered with savory hints of grilled steak, lavender, and warm spice.

Vineyard Update
Our vines are transitioning from early spring vegetative growth to flowering and setting this season’s crop. The vineyard team is finishing up shoot thinning, leaving only the primary shoots that will hold this year’s fruit. We are also tucking these shoots into the trellis wires to maximize indirect sunlight and air circulation, creating the perfect canopy environment for the berries to ripen evenly.
