Hints of sweet spice and smoke seep into sunny apricot and honeysuckle in this lavishly rounded Viognier. It's a classically fleshy, weighty wine with a delightfully clingy finish, but cutting mineral tones and crisp tangerine acidity lend lift and vitality, too.  - Wine Enthusiast 95 Points

Russell Family Vineyard 

Willow Creek District - Paso Robles

I focus on farming our crops with the understanding that the fruits of our labors will be realized in a glass of wine... your glass hopefully!  There is a French term, elevage, which is applied to wine and it translates to “the educating or upbringing” of wine like parents do with their children.  We like to extend that notion into the vineyard and believe that we can train the vines into producing the best possible fruit for wine production.

Our winegrowing goal each year is to raise concentrated and highly expressive fruit. We balance our crop to allow the vines to focus their energy on a limited number of clusters.  The vine canopy is manicured to allow dappled sunlight penetration and air movement within the vine canopy.  We employ a variety of trellis approaches that match our rootstock, scion, and soil combinations.

I strive to create balance in our wines that showcases the vineyard and the vintage it represents. I hope you enjoy!
