Russian River Valley

2012 is the inaugural vintage of the Throne blend, which is comprised of 53% Grenache, 35% Syrah and 12% Mourvedre. This wine is inspired by Guy's time working harvest in the Rhone Valley. The connections that he made while learning there were integral in sculpting his winemaking journey.

He wanted to craft a wine that reflects the spirit and energy of this special place. 2012 was an ideal growing season in the Russian River Valley and the cool vineyard sites allowed for extended hang time for all three varietals.

Our Estate Syrah and the Mourvedre add a richness of darker fruit, earthiness and spice to compliment the red fruit of the Grenache, allowing us to achieve what we like to call ouor "Super Cote Du Rhone"
