WHO WE ARE
So, you've met the owl . . . with the attitude. He's our Wine Snob* ambassador.He does a pretty good job, don't you think? That feather-do, that bowtie.
Especially that eye-roll.
What the owl is trying to say is, you don't have to be a wine snob to enjoy wine. You don't need to use words like "velvety tannins" and "hint of lychee on the nose" to describe a wine. And there's no wrong answer to the question,
"What do you think about this wine?" The only thing that matters is whether you like it.
That's why we're Wine Snob* with an asterisk: Your taste buds. Your rules.
So, don't let the wine snobs get you down!
(If you are a wine snob, that's okay, too. It is pretty fun to say "velvety tannins." Embrace that inner wine snob, but try not to impose it on everyone around you - when you say you think our Tempranillo tastes faintly like leather saddle, don't expect anyone else to know what you're talking about. After all, they didn't go saddle-licking with you last weekend.
And, if you get a strange look, just know that you're the odd one.)
OUR STANDARDS
When we buy a bottle of wine to drink, our priorities are taste, quality, and cost. We want a bottle of wine that's yummy, interesting, unadulterated, and reasonably priced. And, that's what we want to offer to you.So, we work to produce wines that we would look forward to sipping around a camp fire or enjoying with our favorite meals, and - most importantly - that we think taste above their price point.
We work with a winemaking team that puts quality first and growers who use sustainable and organic farming practices. We just want the grapes and the barrels to do their thing.
Of course, in addition to having yummy, high-quality wine, it's nice to have a pretty label.
So, thank you, feathered friend, for gracing us all with your presence.

2021 Sauvignon Blanc
Ever had wine made from grapes in a vineyard edged by pear trees? Here's your chance! This Sauvignon Blanc has strong notes of pear and a hint of honeydew, lime, and fresh-cut grass. It's light, happy, and ready for summer!
2019 Blancbird
White birds and new beginnings. A wet sidewalk after a light rainfall. Flower blossoms. Lemon bars. Chamomile. Ginger. A hint of honey. If you could bottle springtime, this might be it. Sip it with spinach dip and veggies, an everything bagel and smoked salmon, or a turkey and goat cheese croissant. Yum.


2020 Rhôsé
So, you like rosé? Dry, crisp, pretty rosé? Grapefruit-y, watermelon-y, rosebud-y rosé? Pacific-breeze, Sonoma-sun rosé? Springtime, summertime, all-year-round-time rosé? So do we. Cheers!
2020 Pinot Noir
We thought we knew what a moody Pinot was.
Then along came this beauty, so delicate yet strong.
Black cherry and tea, raspberry and peony...
"We love you! We love you!" we sang all night long.
We thought we were friends;
we thought she loved us!
But, "don't call me, I'll call you,"
was her only response.


2016 (T)rebelrouser
So, a bunch of raspberries are hanging out when it suddenly starts raining blueberries and cherries - they're everywhere! The berries all huddle together until the downpour subsides into tiny chocolate sprinkles. As the berries gather up the sprinkles, a peppercorn falls from the sky and bursts into a glitter shower of black and white pepper. Then the sun comes out and everyone's happy. That's what this wine tastes like.
2018 Syrah
Picture a grapevine struggling up out of red, rocky soil near the base of a rugged mountain range, and you'll get a feel for this edgy, yet delicate Syrah. With a touch of Mourvèdre mixed in, this wine has notes of plum, raspberry, olive, and pepper. It's pretty darn good with a gyro, olive tapenade, or some Tandoori chicken!


2019 Puma-5
After the Wine Snob* vineyard trail camera captured a photo of Puma-5, the fifth mountain lion tagged for tracking by Audubon Canyon Ranch's mountain lion research and education project, Living With Lions, we were inspired to create this Bordeaux-style blend and help support the project. The blend consists of five varietals (66% Cabernet Sauvignon + 22% Merlot + 11% Petit Verdot + .5% Cabernet Franc + .5% Malbec) from five Sonoma Valley vineyards within P5's roaming territory. A portion of the proceeds from every bottle sold will be donated to Living With Lions.
