Gravelly soils are responsible for some of the world’s greatest wines. With their superior draining properties and lack of nutrients, they encourage better balanced vines, less sprawl, smaller berries and more intense wines. Gravel Bed Red, as the name suggests, is a proprietary blend showcasing some of the best gravelly sites in Sonoma County.

Our 2021 Gravel Bed Red is dark and layered. The wine opens with aromas of black cherry, blackberry, mocha and allspice. On the palate, intense dark fruit characters and bold tannin are balanced by uplifting acidity. Notes of chocolate linger on the finish. This bold wine pairs beautifully with Tomahawk steak, grilled smash burgers, or sausage herb pasta.
