Produced by the insanely talented, yet humble, Anthony Yount. This is home base where he has set up shop for his family. Producing their own milk and eggs with goats and chickens galore. Proper farm country, back to his roots. Sold out in California, we have the last remaining bottles of this extraordinarily rare release.
Most of York Mountain is forest, as the thin windy roads head skywards, little pockets can be found, on steep slopes. Eagles and Vultures soar, fog sweeps in, providing unique growing conditions. It is unquestionably true California, wild and beautiful.
This wine is a beautiful offering from Anthony, silky texture, boasting rich flavours, earthy minerals, herbs, spice and chocolate, leather….it just goes on and on endlessly, such pleasure to be had from this wine.
