Summer Member Releases

2021 The Key
Chardonnay

Now in its seventh vintage, The Key is our master blend of Chardonnay, combining decades of winemaking wisdom with our long history on the Sonoma Coast.

Crafted from our very best barrels of Chardonnay, our 2021 The Key exudes aromas of lemon, lime and pineapple, with notes of orange peel and gardenia underscoring its exotic nature. On the palate, it is vibrant and refreshing, striking an artful balance between energetic acidity, a rich creamy mouthfeel and delicious fruit.

2021 Nightwing Vineyard Chardonnay

Located in the Petaluma Gap AVA, which is quickly emerging as one of California’s premier regions for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, our new Nightwing Estate Vineyard is perched at 1,200 feet above sea level, where the vines bask in cool ocean breezes and long, sunny days.

Our second vintage of Nightwing Chardonnay is absolutely stunning, combining beautiful richness and energy, with tantalizing layers of Honeycrisp apple, kiwi, pineapple, guava, gardenia, and sweet baking spices.

2021 Bacigalupi Vineyard Chardonnay

Long famous as one of the key growers for the Chardonnay that won the famed 1976 Judgement of Paris Tasting, the Bacigalupi family are Russian River Valley winegrowing icons.

From the Bacigalupi’s acclaimed Frost Ranch, this Chardonnay displays a spicy lemon-ginger zest aroma that jumps out of the glass. On the palate, it beautifully balances richness and crispness with lush, flowing apple pie flavors and a long, focused finish.

2021 Wildcat Mountain
Pinot Noir

Co-owned by our founder, Steve MacRostie, the fog-shrouded Wildcat Mountain Vineyard is a classic Sonoma Coast site—cool and challenging—producing wines of great distinction.

The 2021 Wildcat Mountain Pinot Noir displays enticing aromas of sweet plum, boysenberry and toasty oak. On the entry, it is powerful and expressive, with soft, flowing tannins and lush flavors of blackberry and black cherry that dance across the palate.

2021 Manzana Vineyard
Pinot Noir

The grapes for this Pinot Noir came exclusively from Manzana Vineyard, which is farmed by the renowned Dutton Family. Located in the very cool Green Valley sub-appellation of the Russian River Valley, Manzana’s unique climate results in deeper color and intense aromatics.

Made from our best barrels from Manzana Vineyard, this opulent Pinot offers a soft velvety texture and delicious layers of plum, ripe red raspberry, black cherry and toasty oak.

2021 Hellenthal Vineyard
Pinot Noir

Hellenthal Vineyard was founded by Gard Hellenthal, one of the pioneers in the Fort Ross-Seaview Appellation, and is now managed by his daughter, Elisa. Located just a few miles from the Pacific, the vineyard reaches elevations of more than 1,000 feet.

On the palate, this wine is all about nuance, with fine-grained tannins and alluring flavors of cherry, pomegranate, red licorice and spice that will leave you wanting more.

2021 Petaluma Gap
Pinot Noir

Though we have made vineyard-designate wines from the Petaluma Gap AVA since its establishment in 2018, this is our debut Petaluma Gap AVA Pinot Noir.

The Petaluma Gap is defined by the wind that funnels cool breezes and fog into the region, producing thick skins, low yields, great color, and exotic spice notes. With gorgeous layers of blackberry, black cherry, tobacco, coffee, violet and rose petal, this stunning wine shows why we love the Petaluma Gap.
