---|---|
Description: | Ehren Jordan excels at something that an exceptionally small amount of winemakers can claim; he can not only produce huge, ripe, rich red wines, but also elegant and complex Chards and Pinot Noirs that show precision and finesse. Yes, while Ehren was working at Turley Cellars making big bold reds from warm climates, he would also work on his Failla line of wines, which originate from cool, heavily maritime-influenced vineyards along California's coast. The winemaking is done in Napa, but their estate vineyard comes from the Fort Ross-Seaview AVA, a region characterized by minimum elevations of 920 feet, (keeping them just above the fog line), and distances near to the ocean, keeping temperatures lower than average. Planted in 1997, Failla's Estate Vineyard is organically dry-farmed and sits just 2.5 miles east of the Pacific Ocean, near Hirsch Vineyards, Marcassin, Flowers, and Peter Michael. The wine sees only native yeasts throughout the fermentation process before aging for 11 months in 20% new French oak. |
