Tasting Notes
Reaching down into the deep sandy soils of Somers’ Vineyard in the Mokelumne River AVA, these old Mission vines bring California’s past into the present, with notes of strawberry and cherry notes mingling with fuzzy tannins, made under native fermentation, this wine presents a subtle yet exciting complexity that defies explanation. So instead of explaining, give a slight chill, pop and enjoy!

Making wine is a non-stop journey. A process of learning and discovering. Along the way, we have found a lot of things, including each other. This project was begun with the desire to make the wines we love to drink. We want to share some of the joy we discover with you.
Mabel and Andy met through mutual friends while living and working in the Napa Valley. Both coming from winemaking backgrounds, their shared passion for wine immediately brought them together, and after dating for a few years they got married at Andy’s family’s vineyard in Bloomington, Indiana.
Mabel’s experience working vintages around the world, and Andy’s time making wine in climates as diverse as Indiana and California, has widened their winemaking perspectives and interest in discovery.
This has led them to this project today, with a simple goal in mind: to make the wines that they like to drink and share with friends. This includes a philosophy to make wines that express themselves without over manipulation in the cellar, and farming in line with respecting the natural world. In doing so, they have begun to find unique vineyards around California with soil and climate that lend themselves to fresh yet complex wines.

So. This wine. Took. Us. Out. In a completely awesome way. Being quite light in color ( I thought if a rose at first glance), it produced wonderful fruit notes without too much sweetness. It was delightful. It’s also now gone. So I ordered a sixer. I don’t have notes on its legs, temperature, or specific gravity but I do know it was part of an awesome couch date. I don’t do sweet wines, and this one delivered on taste and balance. Completely enjoyable!
my meh discount code won’t work-
this sux and casemates needs to be
better …i want my $12 discount- yes
i used it once but meh specifically
promised it would be good twice if
i purchased a 12 case - ugh ugh ugh
@wineRussell You got me all excited, so I went to my email to see if this is true. The email states: “…if you ordered more than one 6-pack or case, you’ll get 1 use for each one ordered”. It’s not ideally worded, but it seems to mean that if you ordered more than one 6-pack OR more than one case, then you can use it one time for each unit ordered (whether 6-pack or case). So, buying one case would not get you two uses of the coupon. I do prefer your interpretation, though.
Or in my case, there was no definitive expiration provided when a coupon was provided to me and it expired while I was waiting for the right offer to come along.
The only Mission I’ve tried was a couple of vintages from Sabelli-Frisch several BDs ago, also from the Mokelumne River AVA. I’m intrigued by this, think I’ll sleep on it and revisit in the a.m.
Had me at: 100% Mission is a historic grape varietal (also known as País or Listán Prieto) brought to California by Spanish missionaries in the late 1700s the first CA wine.
