WINEMAKERS NOTES
The White Coat (named for Larry’s past career as an Emergency Room physician) is composed of white Rhône grapes from three of our Estate vineyards across California. The rich, textured Roussanne from Rattlesnake Ridge on Howell Mountain in Napa is moderated by acidity and structure provided by the Grenache Blanc grown in the calcareous soils of the Pesenti Vineyard in Paso Robles. Finally, the blend is rounded out with a touch of refreshing, mineral Vermentino (also known as Rolle) from the granitic and quartz-laden Cobb Vineyard in Amador. The result is an exceptional, dynamic white wine that is truly California.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
91 points Vinous
Bright aromas of cyanic peach pit and fresh herbs. Plump and lightly phenolic, with a distinct umami character and hints of nut oil and licorice to the savory, saline middle palate. Not at all a fruity style. Conveys a very high-pH impression but has plenty of tannic support. (ST)
