" Located at ~2500 feet of elevation in the South Skyline region of the Santa Cruz Mountains, Ascona Vineyard is farmed with organic practices. The soils are ancient marine sedimentary deposits of loosely consolidated sandstone and siltstone, with an average southwest exposure. During the day, Ascona is perched above the marine layer while fog and cool Pacific breezes prevail overnight. This strong diurnal temperature variation permits phenolic ripening and stem maturation, while preserving fresh natural acidity."

 

This beautiful example of Northern Californian terroir was fermented whole cluster and pressed after 18 days on its skins.  25% saw new oak for 9 months before being bottled.  Thyme, juniper and fresh cranberry. Light in the glass but exceptionally floral.
