Atlas Peak

5 cases produced

Highlights

  • Bumble-Bee Block is on the steepest hillside of the DLV vineyards, south facing at 1,650 feet elevation
  • The vines are deeply rooted in white volcanic ash, which is most abundant in this block
  • Thus more minerality and savory earthiness come through in the flavor profile
  • On this mountainside, the vines struggle more and the intensity of the fruit is increased

Wine Facts

  • Single vineyard wine
  • Sustainably produced
  • Wine is 100% estate grown and bottled
