REGIONAL EXPRESSION
Grand Reserve is a winemaker’s blend of our mountain, ridge, hillside and benchland grapes grown along California’s cool coastal appellations. We hand select grapes from our best estate vineyards and then monitor, taste and hand-hold each individual lot throughout the winemaking process. Each lot is kept separate, barrel-aged and crafted—boutique winery style.
Our winemakers have an unmatched palette of avors, toast levels and terroir nuances from which they masterfully blend these exemplary rich, deep and complex wines.
