The Witters Vineyard is situated at 3300 feet in the Sierra Foothills, making it one of the highest plantings in California. 

Our Riesling comes from the Zabala family, a multi-generational grape-growing family with roots in California that date back to the 18th century. This block of Riesling was planted in the 1970s. We decided to make this wine for the simple reason that we wish there were more good sparkling Riesling out there, and the Zabala site is perfectly situated to provide the raw materials.

Jim Jarmusch’s 1986 film, Down By Law, follows three loners played by Roberto Begnini, Jon Lurie and Tom Waits, who break out of a Louisiana prison and go on the lam. It seemed like a fitting name for our attempt to bust Riesling free from decades of misunderstanding. The phrase “Down by Law” refers to someone who has paid their dues and earned their seat at the table. We think this Solera Method sparkling Riesling has done just that.

Like Patrick Swayze's Bodhi in the 1991 Kathryn Bigelow film, the 2020 Point Break White Table Wine combines a laid-back, adventurous spirit with surprising depth. Easy drinking, sunny fun with friends. The perfect start or end to an evening. Vaya con dios.

Escolle Vineyard, 100% Pinot Noir

The power and depth you get from pinot noir for sparklers has always been exciting to us. But you need the right site to make one that's truly stunning. The raw materials from the Escolle Vineyard provide just that.  It has amazing flavor development at low sugar levels, and we couldn't be happier with how the 2019 vintage shaped up. It's our first single vineyard, single vintage release from this site. It will also age beautifully for the next 10+ years, so it's worth squirreling one away for a special occasion.

The Manchester Ridge Vineyard is perched at 2,000 feet of elevation just west of Anderson Valley along the Pacific Ocean. It’s located at the top of the Pacific Coast mountain range, just above the fog line. There is a notable maritime influence and Goldridge soils that impart a striking tension and mineral quality to wines grown there. 100% Pinot Noir.

Our flagship sparkler. 77% Chardonnay (Massa and Manchester Ridge Vineyards) / 12% Pinot Noir (Escolle Vineyard) / 11% Pinot Meunier (Dommen Vineyard). Brut Nature.
