White

Winemaker David Milner employs native yeast fermentation, delivering year after year a laser-focused, lean white defined by zesty freshness. In 2023, the wine shows an added layer of mid-palate richness, revealing a silky, suave, medium-bodied expression. Citrus- and saline-driven fruit leads the way, joined by notes of candied ginger and baked apple and pear, all resolving on a long, mineral-rich finish. Precise yet generous, this is a beautifully balanced vintage that combines energy with depth. Tripp Donelan, son of founder Joe Donelan, lends his daughter’s name to Cuvée Pierrine, sourced from Allen Vineyard in the Russian River Valley—a site long favoured by Williams Selyem and Gary Farrell Winery.
