Highlights
- Our Eulenloch Vineyard is located in Los Carneros and is predominantly comprised of clay soils, which retain water but are remarkably shallow
- When combined with the cool coastal breeze, these characteristics provide us with ripe fruit that is complex and nuanced
- Your wine is supple and satiny, with bright acidity set off by rich fruit; aging in 100% French oak (60% new, 40% seasoned) for nine months
- After the first racking, malolactic fermentation was complete; we rack for a second time before making the final blend
