Kirsch and sweet red berries flow with gorgeous finesse. Cedar and tobacco weave through without masking the wine's delicate floral core. Rose petals and sage lift beautifully from the glass. Mint and dried flowers carry the finish with lovely persistence.

Sandlands

Tegan Passalacqua's Sandlands focuses on old-vine California varieties, particularly from Lodi and Contra Costa County, making low-intervention wines from Carignan, Mataro, Trousseau, and Syrah that reward serious attention.
