Description
The Yates Family Vineyard on Mount Veeder is a sweet spot for wine grape growing. The rock, stones and minerals of the shallow volcanic soils and cool maritime breezes from San Pablo Bay combined to make this one of the truly great vineyards for Bordeaux varietals. This unique cuvee, our first for the PNV, is the culmination of mastering the special qualities of our vineyard, along with painstaking efforts in the cellar to put in the bottle the purest expression of the fruit of this land.
Our wines drink beautifully in youth, and will age for decades.
