Collins Vineyard, located two miles north of the town of Windsor, was planted in 1934 and produces rich, intense, complex wine. It was originally part of Limerick Lane Cellars, surrounding the home of winemaker Michael Collins. We are very fortunate to work with this old-vine, heritage Zinfandel.
Twelve bottles of wine from the 2021 vintage of WineWorks, the first produced at the Sebastopol winery. This package includes two bottles each of the Balletto Chardonnay, the Balletto and La Vista Pinot Noirs and three bottles each of the Emmitt-Scorsone Grenache and the Collins Vineyard Old-Vine Zinfandel.
Our Pinot Noir from Jon Sassin's La Vista Vineyard. This one-acre block of Pinot Noir, located a mile and a half north of the town of Graton, produces excellent Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. The wine is dominated by a core of rich cherry fruit and offers a long, lingering finish.
Charlatan is the very finest Pinot Noir we make. In fact, only three barrels were ultimately selected for the 2013 Charlatan, and just 69 cases were bottled.
Michael Scorsone has been a long-time friend and an honorary member of our family. Through our relationship with Michael we are able to source superb Dry Creek Valley fruit from the Emmitt-Scorsone Estate, located two miles west of the town of Healdsburg. The grapes produce a lovely, soft, medium-bodied wine full of red fruit and spice.
Six bottles of Perception Charlatan Pinot Noir, the finest barrels of Pinot produced by Perception in any given vintage. This package includes two bottles each of the 2018, 2013 & 2012 Charlatan.
