Nestled in the eastern hills of Napa Valley, the 9-acre Quella vineyard sits on a steep, southwest-facing slope composed of cobble, rocks, and pockets of tufa (volcanic ash). This unique terroir gives the wine its signature minerality and precision. The 2020 vintage is a beautifully expressive example, balancing bright blue fruit, graphite, and a refined, energetic finish.
