Tasting note

Theo pulled this from the cellar in early April. The 2025 vintage was cooler than 2022. Whole cluster at 50%, neutral oak.

The producer

Drift Vineyard

A first-generation winery in the deep Sonoma Coast cool. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and a couple of stubborn experiments. We are here for the acid.

Drift flagship comes from a single ridge two miles from the Pacific.
