Vineyard Notes:

Southern Napa, like its neighbor, Carneros, is open to the cooling influence of the San Pablo Bay, so grapes grown here ripen slowly, developing concentrated flavors. Our Vista Montone vineyard is home to a special block that faces the rising sign, aptly names Day Break. The vineyard’s cool microclimate and chalky soil is ideal for producing deep, complex Merlot.

Winemaker Notes:

“This is our most southern vineyard and is not very vigorous due to the cool microclimate. Bud break happens early, but then we don’t end up picking until mid-October. However, despite this cool microclimate, this is not a timid wine. In fact it is very new-world style with structured and chewy tannins. It has luscious and concentrated black fruit aromas and flavors accented by chocolate covered cherries, and briar patch nuances. It would be perfect with roasted pork and figs. Cheers!” —Mario Monticelli
