Welcome to the 2018 Josephine Allocation

A tribute to our founder, Josephine Tychson, we craft this wine as a rich, complex, elegant, and intriguing wine from St. Helena. A base of Cabernet yields dark fruit notes of black cherry and black raspberry with well-structured tannins. Merlot contributes elements of plum, vanilla, and supple textures, while the Cabernet Franc and Malbec add exotic baking spice notes. The resulting blend is creamy, brooding, and richly textured, making it great with food or simply lovely on its own.

Primary Vineyards

Our Sauvignon Blanc is a great accompaniment to a spring or summer day. Bright, lively, and aromatic, this wine opens with notes of tropical fruits, lemon zest, lime leaf, and honeydew. The palate is crisp and fresh with flavors of mandarin, grapefruit, cantaloupe, apricot, and lemongrass. There is plenty of minerality and bright textures to make this wine great on its own or paired with salads, seafood, and poultry dishes.
