Brian Talley and Jim Clendenen selected a discreet 1.2-acre block that contains some of the oldest Pinot Noir vines on the Talley property as the ABC section. The resulting wine shows a beautiful plum, cherry and spice character in well structured frame.

Cool climate Viognier is hard to find in California. Le Bon Climat is truly cool climate, located on the edge of the Santa Maria Valley, providing ideal conditions for this varietal. The 2016 offers restrained melon, pear and honeysuckle notes along with excellent structure and balanced acidity. The viscosity is rich but understated.

Beautifully perfumed, with notes of sweet cherries, underbrush, cured meats and dried flowers. It is a medium-bodied wine, silky and polished on the palate, with a fabulous texture. Should drink well for a decade or more. Score 90 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate.; 90 points Antonio Galloni's Vinous.

A wine of charm and balance. Delicate fruit notes of apple, licorice and melon effortlessly intertwine with a gentle toasty character. The 24 months aging in new Francois Frere oak barrels makes an obvious, but not overpowering statement.
