Valdiguié

The vines grow in the Green Valley of Solano County, between Napa and Suisun Valley, on steep, iron-rich soils. According to the producer, the dry-farmed vines planted in 1948 provide greater depth and structure. In 2023, the wine was fermented by carbonic maceration in a concrete tank, pressed after just over a week, finished fermenting in concrete and then matured in neutral barrique. It shows dark fruit, violet, blueberry compote, plum and subtle spice, with lively acidity, an elegant structure and 11,5 % alcohol. A distinctive feature is the very small production of just 87 cases.
