Gossamer-light yet compelling, with wild strawberry and pomegranate threading through gentle whole-cluster spice. Bechthold Vineyard's ancient vines deliver remarkable transparency. Each sip reveals layers of dried herbs, orange peel and forest floor that seem to float rather than push. The wine's featherweight body belies its aromatic complexity and persistent, mineral-driven finish.

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.
