The fruit comes from two remarkable locations. The Sauvignon Musque (a particularly exotic and aromatic clone of Sauvignon Blanc) is Uboldi and Judge vineyards. The Semillon element comes from 100 year old vines growing at 1800’ above Sonoma Valley in the incomparable Monte Rosso vineyard. In the cellar the fruit is given battonage treatment to increase its richness and lies on its lees until just prior to bottling. The barrels for the blend are made by the former private barrel maker for Smith Haut Lafitte - who coopers tight grain French oak into barrels for this wine as he would for his former employer.
