Fog Line


2005 Red Wine


Bei Du Rocchi Ranch


From Old World Winery


The Wine


Bright fruit flavors including plum and black currant with subtle blackberry notes are present in this unique single vineyard blend. A pleasantly tart backbone makes this wine perfect for warm evenings.


The Winemaking


All of our wines are fermented with native yeasts only. We add nothing to the wine except for a small amount of sulfur which protects the wine during the aging process. We believe letting the wine make itself is the only way to truly express the vineyard through the wine.


The Blending


The Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are grown side by side in the Bei Du Rocchi Vineyard. The were both picked on the same day and fermented together, allowing the flavors to completely integrate before bottling.


The Vineyard


The Bei Du Rocchi Ranch, located in the Sonoma Coast near the town of Cazadaro, has been owned and operated by the Bei family for four generations. The ranch lays one ridgeline from the Pacific Ocean on an easterly saddle that is protected from the cool winds by Pole Mountain. With an elevation of 1600 feet, the fog usually rests below the vineyard, allowing for hot afternoons, which benefits the ripening of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah in an appellation that is considered to be mostly Pinot Noir country.
