AVA - Mendocino
Located over three hours north of San Francisco, this vineyard relies on elevations
as high as 2700 feet for a cooling effect.
There's so much to say about this vineyard which grows a number of varietals, but
even more to say about the owner Stu Bewley - smart, nice and passionate about what
he does. The vines are all planted on steep hillsides with a combination of Scott
Henry and Smart Dyson trellising systems with vine density as much as 3300 vines
per acre.
It's hard to contain our excitement about this vineyard because it represents a
combination of people, site, viticulture and a track record with wineries we're
honored to be sharing fruit with.
The Pinot and the Syrah from this vineyard are world class examples of the varietals.
