Long growing season marked by plentiful winter and spring rains. The final blend is composed of nine different picks in order to achieve complexity and balance. Meyer lemon, golden delicious apples, yellow peaches, musk melon, and honey on the nose. The flavors carry through to the palate, and the vibrant acidity is balanced by beautiful fleshiness, finishing very clean with a lingering minerality./p>

Matthiasson is one of the quiet intellectual centers of contemporary Napa Valley. Steve and Jill Klein Matthiasson built their estate around organic farming, restrained winemaking and a belief that California wine can be ripe, fresh and table-ready at the same time. Steve's background as a viticultural consultant gives the wines an unusually agricultural foundation, while the cellar work avoids excess oak, alcohol and manipulation. Their range includes Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Ribolla Gialla, Refosco and inventive white blends, all marked by energy, savory detail and a Mediterranean sense of balance that feels refreshingly human for Napa.
