Winemaker Notes: 

"The Mission grape was the first European grapevine cultivated in California but has been rarely planted post-prohibition. We know that it thrived here on the Scribe Estate in the 1800s, and we recently found letters from that time detailing the quality of the Mission wines from this property. In the spirit of curiosity and exploration, we planted two acres of Mission in front of the Hacienda to explore its potential in our era. 

This new release marks the first harvest of Mission vines on the Scribe Estate in more than 100 years. The first tastes indicate that these are wild and rustic wines with bright, spicy fruit and gravelly tannins. In this explanation, we were inspired to make two expressions of Mission: one still, one sparkling. We're excited to continue to uncover Mission's potential here, where it was realized so long ago. We recommend serving this wine chilled."
