"Produced since 2005, the Joseph Phelps Freestone Vineyards Pinot Noir represents the "True" Sonoma Coast wine movement. In the late 1990's, a search for vineyards led Joseph Phelps Vineyards further West to the town of Freestone on the Sonoma Coast, where few vineyards existed at the time. The Pinot Noir grown here opens with floral aromas of red fruit and savory herbs, has balanced acid and tannin structure, and lingering boysenberry and cherry notes." —winemaker

"This wine reflects the region’s distinct textures, flavors and terroir, with beautiful elegance and balance. Since the inaugural vintage in 1998, founding winemaker Lynn Penner-Ash has drawn upon longstanding relationships with grower neighbors and friends, to source fruit from the most distinguished vineyards. The 2022 vintage explores six sub-AVAs, culminating in a Pinot Noir emblematic of the Willamette Valley, and of the Penner-Ash winemaking style – a textural experience from start to finish." —winemaker

"Elegantly structured and polished, Faust 2023 Napa Valley Cabernet is exquisitely balanced between freshness and richness on the palate. The cool forest notes that lift from the glass meld with oak spice, bay laurel, and fragrant underbrush while the wine's signature star anise gives way to beautifully concentrated flavors of Luxardo cherry, blueberry compote, and dark cocoa. Fine-grained tannins wrap around a backbone of acidity that persists-with intriguing wet-slate minerality-endlessly on the finish. The generous character of this wine makes it delicious now, but with its tight structure, it will age beautifully." —winemaker

"Exotic nose with notes of mango, honey, and spices. Full, almost mellow palate, balanced on a razor's edge by a light sparkle that adds pep to the whole. Smooth finish with notes of spices." —winemaker
