It is made from grapes grown in the cool climate of Carneros, an appellation known for producing exceptional Burgundian varieties. The vineyard features well-drained soils and a maritime influence that allows the grapes to ripen slowly, resulting in a wine with balanced acidity and rich flavors. The winemaking process involves barrel fermentation and aging in French oak, which imparts a creamy texture and subtle notes of vanilla and spice.
