Red fruit flows with chalky precision across the palate, lifted by floral aromatics and white pepper spice. This century-old San Benito vineyard delivers gorgeous restraint and mineral-driven elegance. Fine-grained tannins provide structure without weight.

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.
