2025 GAMAY NOIR

NOLAN Vineyard
Alisos canyon

Teffy Icon

The Nolan Vineyard sits at the northeastern corner of Alisos Canyon, just south of Santa Maria Valley. Mountains running east/west open to the Pacific Ocean, funneling marine air through the canyon and cooling the grapes in the mornings and evenings. Partial whole-cluster fermentation fills out the texture and adds savory nuance to the wine. This Gamay can be enjoyed young but should develop gracefully over many years.
