Here's Why You Should Stock Up
- Sol Rouge occupies a former walnut orchard situated on the side of Mt. Konocti, one of Lake County's tallest peaks. Still a family-owned estate, its vineyard in the Mayacamas Mountains' Red Hills appellation sits 1,800 feet above sea level with slopes of up to 60%.
- The vineyard itself follows an Old World technique of high-density plantings. This expensive approach naturally limits the yields by introducing competition for sunlight, nutrients, and water. In the right environment, the slight stress concentrates the plant's energy into fewer, yet more flavorful, clusters.
- The 2015 Zinfandel used a clone from the famous Beatty Ranch in Howell Mountain. The new environment suited the vine well and produced a wine with echoes of Biale, O'Shaughnessy, and Far Niente's Nickel and Nickel.
