White pepper and crushed stone frame delicate orchard fruit, while the palate delivers impressive weight without heaviness. This old-vine expression shows remarkable purity and focus for a first effort from this storied vineyard. The mineral backbone carries through a persistent, saline finish.

Arnot-Roberts

Arnot-Roberts makes some of California's most restrained, site-specific wines, working with obscure varieties and old-vine material across a wide range of appellations well outside the Napa mainstream.
