SONS & DAUGHTERS RANCH, RUSSIAN RIVER VALLEY

The volcanic, rocky loam soils of Sons & Daughters Ranch in the Russian River Valley foster concentrated, low-yielding vines, producing intensely flavored fruit. The cool climate, influenced by coastal fog, helps preserve the freshness and balance of the grapes, creating wines that express the essence of this unique terroir.

This wine, crafted with fruit from the renowned Alban 1 clone, showcases the intense concentration typical of the vineyard’s low-yielding, meticulously managed vines. Fortified with brandy to halt fermentation, this Grenache Noir exudes opulence with a rich array of flavors and a lingering finish.
