• Leslie and Raemy sample young Chardonnay from Dutton Ranch.

• Barrrels are sterilized for cleaning and to expand the staves.

• The team gathers weekly to taste lots, assessing complexity, texture and depth of each new vintage.

• The Russian River Valley offers a stunning backdrop for collaboration.

• The team treats each fermentation vessel—whether concrete egg, tank, or barrel—as a distinct wine. Using native yeasts for fermentation, every batch becomes a unique expression.

• They work with a broad spectrum of appellations to achieve the best representations of each in the bottle.
