SUMMARY:Spring 2026 Release Party
DESCRIPTION:Our spring wine club release will be on Sunday\, May 17\, 2026\, from noon to 2 at Sidewinder. Enjoy sampling our two new wines along with these food pairings from On the Vine Catering. More information will be coming soon. \n  \nTICKETS\n  \n\n\nTHE WINES\n2025 Sauvignon Blanc — Sunol Highlands\, Livermore Valley\n96 cases produced · 13.2% ABV \nWe are excited to present our 2025 Sauvignon Blanc from Sunol Highlands\, a remarkable high-elevation site nestled in the coastal hills above Calaveras Reservoir. Perched where marine influence meets inland warmth\, this vineyard consistently delivers wines of clarity\, energy\, and precision. This limited release—just 96 cases—captures the distinctive character of one of Livermore Valley’s most compelling sites. \nIn the glass\, the wine opens with bright aromatics of citrus blossom\, lime zest\, and fresh-cut herbs\, layered with notes of green apple and a subtle mineral edge. The palate is vibrant and focused—crisp acidity\, a clean mid-palate\, and a refreshing lift that carries through a long\, mouthwatering finish. \nAt 13.2% alcohol\, the wine leans into freshness and restraint\, highlighting the natural balance achieved at elevation. This is Sauvignon Blanc shaped by place—cool nights\, coastal winds\, and a patient approach to farming and winemaking that preserves both purity and expression. \nBeautifully expressive in its youth\, this wine offers immediate appeal while maintaining the structure to evolve gracefully over the near term—an authentic reflection of Sunol Highlands and the Livermore Valley. \n  \n2023 Pinot Noir — Lineage Estate\, Green Valley (Russian River Valley)\n82 cases produced · 14.3% ABV \nWe are proud to introduce our 2023 Pinot Noir from Lineage Estate\, rooted in the cool\, fog-laced Green Valley of the Russian River Valley. This limited release—just 82 cases—brings together an equal blend of Martini\, Pommard\, and Dijon 777 clones\, each contributing its own voice to a seamless whole. \nIn the glass\, the wine opens with lifted aromatics of red cherry\, wild strawberry\, and rose petal\, layered with subtle notes of forest floor and baking spice. The palate is defined by precision and restraint—bright acidity\, fine-grained tannins\, and a silken texture that carries through a long\, nuanced finish. \nAt 14.3% alcohol\, the wine strikes a compelling balance between ripeness and freshness\, capturing the natural tension that defines Green Valley Pinot Noir. This is a wine shaped by place—coastal influence\, thoughtful farming\, and a careful blending of heritage and modern clonal selections. \nBeautifully expressive now\, it will continue to evolve with grace over the coming years\, offering a pure and focused expression of the Lineage Estate vineyard. \n
