summer dreamsThe WedgePinot Noir
I named this masterpiece for the first place I really fell in love with California, for its fury, for its beauty — this great surfing place known for producing some of the largest and most powerful shore break waves in the world! - Jayson Woodbridge
New Vintage Release.
Wine Notes
A bold and vibrant example of Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. Lifted aromatics of wild strawberry and cranberry, refer to the cool and breezy site where our grapes were grown. Set against a floral backdrop of dried rose petals and honeysuckle, with hints of forest floor and rocky volcanics, this wine is a kaleidoscope of textures and perfumes. Our French oak barrels provide a bed of vanilla and clove and baking spice notes and allow for the natural tannin structure of the wine to be on full display.
Sold as 6-pack

Map Maker: Summer Dreams, Fortunate Son and Hundred Acre New Releases
The Wine Independent | Lisa Perrotti-Brown
“I’m a direct descendent of Jacques Cartier, the cartographer,” Jayson Woodbridge tells me, seemingly apropos of nothing. But nothing is random or out of context with Jayson. For example, he describes Cartier as a cartographer, not an explorer—the profession by which Cartier is better known. With Jayson, every casually offered piece of shared information is specific and purposeful, whether you get it or not.
