Winemaker Notes
These lots and barrels are consistently the stand-outs of the vintage, the best vineyard sites and the best tasting barrels within these lots. The intensity and balance of flavors are such that extended sur-lie aging enhances the richness and complexity of these barrels. They will stay undisturbed for an additional two or three months without further batonnage or stirring. This extra time produces a more evolved wine that is also capable of being bottled unfined and unfiltered. This direct blend and bottle strategy means that more richness, flavor and finesse are evident in this wine, which is truly the best of the vintage.

Landmark Vineyards was founded in 1974 in Windsor, California. In 1989, Damaris Deere Ford, became sole proprietor and relocated the winery to Sonoma Valley. Ford is a descendant of John Deere, founder of the world's largest tractor manufacturer. Landmark Vineyards is located at the base of Sugarloaf Mountain in Sonoma Valley. In 1993, world-renowned consulting enologist Helen Turley was hired to work with former winemaker, Eric Stern. Landmark Vineyard's mission is "to make great wines that enhance the joy of life." Quality and flavor begin in the vineyards. In addition to the estate vineyard, Landmark sources grapes from a range of different vineyards and those selected are the finest in the highly diverse microclimates of Sonoma County's winegrowing regions.
