Walked every row this week. Bud break is even across the blocks — the Grenache on calcareous shale and limestone over clay always wakes first. No frost in the forecast, which is the news I wanted.

About this Crew

Winemaker
Rhône and Zinfandel country with the biggest diurnal swing in California. The estate behind this lot is named only to enrolled members; until then you're backing the region, the style, and a verified track record — not a label.
Paso Robles, California was a farming town long before it was a wine name. The family sold fruit to bigger houses for years before keeping it back and bottling under our own label.
“We had a scare with a late cold snap but the buds held. Now it's down to the summer — I want a long, slow ripening, not a sprint to sugar.”
— the winemaker, updated this month
Whole bunches when the stems are ripe, destemmed when they're not. Native ferment, long and slow. warm days, dramatic cool nights off the pacific does most of the shaping — restraint does the rest.

Cover crop turned in between the rows. The bees are already on the mustard. Paso Robles, California smells like spring.

March 18, 2026
Spent the morning re-tying canes the wind pulled loose. Unglamorous, but it's the difference between a tidy canopy and a mess in July.

One year of your life, inside one vineyard's year. You'll follow the winemaker from bud break to bottle.
