This vineyard planted back in 1937 is quite unique. Just a mile and a half from the Napa border on the Sonoma side of the Mayacamas, the vines are planted at a 900 feet altitude along steep, contoured terraces (now prohibited). The extraordinary vines sit in the fog and has adapted to these special features. The grapes have a thicker, tougher skins. The result is a very deep purple wine with increased and impressive structure & tannins. It also has a scabrous character like a peach skin effect.
