Impressive depth from these old Amador vines. Rich stone fruit and honeyed florals emerge with real concentration, while crisp minerality cuts through the generous texture. The finish carries hints of dried herbs and white pepper. Remarkable what three barrels can achieve.

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.
