Food Pairings

Pair with penne arrabbiata. The wine’s acidity cuts through the richness of the sauce, and its red fruit flavors complement the tomatoes.

Vineyard Notes

Our Montipulciano comes from Clements Hills in Lodi and is defined by its rolling hills with elevations ranging from 150 to 400 feet. The region’s red clay loam soils are of volcanic origin, similar to those found in California’s North Coast. Compared to AVAs to the west, Clements Hills experiences a warmer and wetter climate with wider temperature variations between day and night. We blend in a small amount of Petit Verdot from the Serres Ranch, located in Sonoma Valley, for its concentrated tannin and color.

Winemaker Notes

We craft Montepulciano to balance vibrant fruit with savory depth, using gentle techniques to preserve fresh cherry and cranberry notes. A brief maceration and light oak aging enhance texture without overpowering the fruit’s character. Careful monitoring ensures the wine’s signature earthy undertones combine with its bright acidity and approachable tannins. The result is a versatile, food-friendly wine that reflects charm of the varietal.

Our Label Story

Behind the Marble

Our wine labels are more than decoration—they reflect heritage, craftsmanship, and our Italian roots. Inspired by the hand-painted frescoes once featured on past bottles, in 2018 we set out to reintroduce authentic Italian artistry in a fresh, modern way. That vision led us to Maria Giannini, a sixth-generation artisan and the first woman to lead her family’s 150-year-old marbling studio, Giulio Giannini e Figlio, in Florence.

Maria’s hand-marbled papers, crafted with traditional tools and natural pigments, form the foundation of our Terra and Altura Collection labels. Each wine features a unique pattern and color palette inspired by its distinct flavor profile and story, interpreted through a close collaboration between Maria and Viansa.
