During the Triassic period, a large shallow seaway existed through parts of California, which accumulated 4,000 feet of marine sediments as the seaway subsided. These were deeply buried over time by later deposits and then enveloped in the intruding granite magma boiling up to become our Tehachapi Mountains. Today, the sunny southern exposed slope of the vineyard is rich with this rocky soil and rewards us with wines of exceptional character.
