The Clarksburg appellation is known for its unique microclimate. As the Sacramento Valley heats up during the day, it pulls in the cool maritime breeze from the Bay, which allows warm summer days and cool evenings. The climate is ideal for growing many white varietals that are wonderfully aromatic with crisp, fresh acidity. We take special care in all aspects of our grape growing from deficit irrigation, to precise pruning techniques, to handpicking at harvest.
Grapes were handpicked in the morning and whole cluster pressed. Juice was cold settled and fermented cold in stainless steel tanks.
