“JJ discovered this vineyard while working with scholium project. They get their Naucratis (Verdelho) and Riquewihr (Gewürztraminer) from lost slough. The vineyard is located in the Sacramento river delta and was once below sea level, you can witness this in the sandy soil littered with shells fragments. We have been making wine from this vineyard since 2009.” - Winemaker’s Notes
