Merchant's description

Racines is the exciting project of talented young Santa Barbara winemaker, Justin Willet, Étienne de Montille of Domaine de Montille in Burgundy and Rodolphe Péters of Pierre Péters in Champagne. The Bentrock Vineyard is found on the extreme, western edge of the Santa Rita Hills and this wine is composed of two distinctive parcels within it. It is a rugged and lively wine with brilliant personality, exhibiting strikingly pure notes of Meyer lemon, white flower blossom and liquidised rocks with a distinctive salty tang.
