Our primary vineyard is owned by the Barnum brothers, and located in El Dorado. Barnum is planted exclusively to the Barbera grape on own rooted, head trained, 40+ year old vines. When the rest of the foothills are scalding hot, Barnum has a temperate coolness to it that matches its idyllic rolling hills. We made just enough of this wine for Frances restaurant here in SF, so unless you come in for dinner, you aren’t going to see this wine..but..it’s good, real good, focused like a laser with a little bit of baby fat to soften it up, this is what they are talking about when they say ‘hot tub wine’. 20 cases bottled.
