Mendocino Mountains · Brunello Clone
Savory · Vibrant · Earthy · Elegant
Our 2022 Sangiovese from the Mendocino Mountains is grown from a Brunello clone, bringing an unmistakably Italian spirit to a rugged Northern California landscape.
Organically farmed and dry-farmed, hand harvested and fermented with native yeast, this small-production Sangiovese is vibrant and savory, balancing ripe fruit with earth, spice and beautiful natural acidity.
If you love Brunello, Chianti and Italian reds built for the dinner table, this is a bottle worth discovering.
Bramble fruit and dried cherry lead into layers of savory earth, leather and spice.
The palate is medium-bodied and beautifully textured, with enough richness to feel generous while bright acidity and fine tannins keep everything lifted and alive.
The finish is long, savory and gently grippy—the kind of structure that makes Sangiovese such an extraordinary food wine.
This bottle wants dinner.
Pour it with:
Braised beef or short ribs
Roast pork
Mushroom risotto
Pasta with ragù
Tomato-based pasta and pizza
Grilled or roasted meats
Wild mushrooms and earthy vegetables
Aged Pecorino or Parmigiano-Reggiano
Tuscan and other Italian-inspired dishes
Give it a little air, put something hearty on the table and let the evening unfold.
Our Sangiovese comes from the Mendocino Mountains, where elevation and Northern California's distinctive growing conditions give the variety freshness, structure and character.
The vineyard is organically farmed and dry-farmed, an approach that prioritizes soil health, water conservation and resilience while allowing the vines to respond naturally to their growing environment.
For a variety known for translating place so beautifully, that matters.
This Sangiovese is grown from a Brunello clone—the same family of Sangiovese associated with the celebrated wines of Montalcino.
But we're not trying to make an imitation of Tuscany.
This is Sangiovese through a Northern California lens: expressive fruit, savory complexity, beautiful acidity and the character of the Mendocino Mountains.
The fruit is hand harvested, fermented with native yeast and aged for 10 months in neutral oak barrels, preserving freshness and allowing the vineyard and variety to remain at the center of the wine.
Some wines are aperitifs. Some are contemplative cellar bottles.
This one wants food, friends and a table.
Open it with something slow-cooked. Pour it alongside pasta. Bring it when someone else is making dinner.
