Inland from Monterey’s rugged coastline, yet still directly in the path of the ocean’s relentless influences, Carmel Road’s vineyards can be found nestled on the foothills of the Santa Lucia Mountains. No mountains hinder the flow of air from the Monterey Bay, allowing fog and chilly, moisture-laden winds to sweep over our vineyards daily, making this one of the coldest wine regions in California. 

This wine features lively white peach and Asian pear aromas, combined with bright acidity and minerality. It's fresh and vibrant on the palate, with citrus layers. The cool vintage led to a late harvest, allowing the fruit to develop full flavors and great acidity. It's an excellent showcase of the Monterey region.
