Pinot Gris

Handley Cellars, Anderson Valley, CA

• Vegan Friendly
  Maker: Randy Schock (winemaker), Lulu Handley (owner)
  Composition: 100% Pinot Gris from Handley Estate vineyards in Anderson Valley.
  Notes: White nectarine, guava, lemongrass – a dry, medium-bodied white wine.
  About: Handley is known for minimal-intervention, food-friendly wines, and particularly for their California spin on Alsatian white wines. Winemaker Randy calls this wine, “Golden Sun Drops” — think peach and apple blossom aromas with notes of guava, stone fruit, and bright acidity.

Zinfandel

J Dusi, Paso Robles, CA

• Sustainably Farmed
• Woman-Owned
• 100+ Year Old Vines
• Family-Owned
  Maker: Janell Dusi
  Composition: 100% Zinfandel from 50% Dante Dusi Vineyard, 50% Paper St. Vineyard in Paso Robles.
  Notes: Dark berries, vanilla, and spice.
  About: Grapevines were Janell’s playground as a child. Her family owned some of the oldest Zinfandel vineyards in California for four generations. Now, she’s bringing a whole new perspective to the family farming tradition by putting Paso Robles Zinfandel in a can. This Old Vine Zin captures the best of two different vineyards - big and spicy elements from Paper Street vineyard, and soft, earthy flavors from Dusi vineyard. The result? A perfectly balanced wine full of dark berries, vanilla, and spice.
