WHO?
A combination of world-renowned vineyards and a top-notch winery makes Racines one of the most exciting modern viticultural projects in California. It is a collaboration between Etienne de Montille from Domaine de Montille in Volnay and his Californian winemaker Brian Sieve. In 2016, Etienne and Brian spent months traveling through the Golden State in search of its best vineyard locations. Their goal was to discover great producers of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and to get to know the various appellations of the state. After hundreds of tastings and meetings, they ultimately fell in love with Santa Barbara County and its mix of ambitious young winemakers and historic vineyards such as ‘Bien Nacido’ and ‘Sanford & Benedict’.
WHERE?
From the upper plantings of the La Rinconada vineyard, located adjacent to the renowned Sanford & Benedict vineyard, consisting of deep, dark, rocky soils.
WHY?
Two-thirds of the whole clusters were retained and fermented before aging in 228-liter barrels, with 30% new oak.
