My Rhône-centric philosophy is the essence of each wine I produce: Rhône varietals, blends, sparkling, and single-vineyard Zinfandels.
So, what is this Rhône-centric philosophy, that I speak of? It starts with my true passion for wines that come from both the Northern and Southern Rhône Valley, and other parts of the South of France.
It's rooted in my curiosity and understanding a terroir's minerality and what it gives the wine. It's immersing myself into the viticulture of each appellation and my winemaking practices.
It's the culmination of the knowledge I have gained from my research, my overindulgence of wine and food of this region, my life-long friendships with Rhône winemakers, and my continuous experimentation both in the vineyard and in the cellar that drives my Rhône-centric style. For me, it is very much a Zen thing.
Limited. A classic vertical for the Rockpile Syrah lover: a bottle each of 2015, 2016 and 2017 Rockpile Syrah 'Haley'

Organic Russian River Vineyard
PROFOUND is the best way to describe this deeply colored wine. Black / red raspberry notes intermingle with blackberry / cassis, a touch of Worchestershire and soy sauce notes and reminds me of the Northern Rhone.

Organic Martinelli Russian River Vineyard

Sustainably Farmed Landy Russian River Valley Vineyard
If you’re into blackberry pie filling in a perfectly baked pie shell, this wine is for you. The 2018 reminds me more of blend of Cornas and Côte Rôtie.

Organic Sonoma Valley Vineyard
Year in and year out this wine is the one that always mystifies me. It reminds me of what a potential blend of a Cote Rôtie and a Syrah from Chateauneuf du Pape would be if they were blended together.
