Description:
Dorsal Wines is the project of Devin Alexander Myers who works with a number of sites planted amongst the wild, old growth redwood coast of Mendocino, California.
The winery is in Cloverdale, Sonoma County with grapes exclusively coming from organically and biodynamically dry-farmed family vineyards in the coastal valleys and ridges of Mendocino County.
Monsoon comes from 64-year-old chardonnay vines planted in Redwood Valley over clay soils. The fruit was lightly foot-trodden and macerated overnight before being pressed off for fermentation. The style is delicate, pure and saline, with a compact core of restrained fruit that very much sings of clay.
Orb comes from grenache grown on volcanic soil in the Sierra Foothills. The fruit was lightly foot-trodden and macerated for three days before being pressed off for fermentation and 6 months of elevage. It’s red-fruited, with a slightly pulpy texture and delicate, dusty aromatics.
We’re happy to be offering these two wines as a discounted twin-pack, for those looking to properly acquaint themselves with this wonderful producer. The price of the twin-pack is $289.00 — down from a regular retail value of $304.
These are super high quality and very, very delicious.
