The 100% MP comes from the original “Creekside Block” planted in 2005. Similar to our Sangiovese West Terrace, this OG block always produces our best Montepulciano (we have 3 other tiny MP blocks). Whether it is vine age, or the soil, the Creekside block MP reminds us most of the best wines in Le Marche and Abruzzo.  The early summer heat in September of ’22 was enough to ripen the tannins making this a very expressive version, one that will likely show better earlier than normal. Don’t be fooled, this is a full-bodied wine that will age nicely over the next 4 to 6 years.

This 100% Barbera comes from our small block of clone 84, which is now producing our most concentrated and structured Barbera. Considered the highest quality clone from Torino in Piemonte, clone 84 has small, low weight clusters leading to a more compelling wine. It was crafted in the style of Italy's best wines from Asti and Nizza, meaning this dark, strucutred was aged in about 35% new French oak barrels. This is not only the finest Barbera from Unti, it is a landmark wine for Cal-Ital wines. It should age nicely over the next 3 to 5 years, or more.

From a 2-acre vineyard we planted on our Benchland property in 2013, Aglianico is fast becoming our best Italian varietal wine. The well-drained soils and micro-climate are ideal for ripening Aglianico. Our night time cool temps result in more expressive fruit and ideal acidity than in Southern italy, with the tannin structure you exect from the DOCG, Taurasi. The 2021 Aglianico is concentrated, complex and balanced, with finer tannins than in previous vintages. It really personifies the great 2021 vintage. I love this wine! MU

40% Vermentino, 40% Grenache Blanc, 20% Picpoul

Cuvée Blanc was our first white wine from an experimental vineyard block planted in 2004, containing Vermentino, Grenache Blanc and Picpoul. We now have almost 6 acres planted combined, and it is still our best example of a serious southern French white blend. Grenache Blanc, the foundation for many Châteauneuf-du-Pape white wines, lends body, richness and texture. Vermentino offers floral fruity aromas and flavor, while Picpoul adds a lovely citrus edge. The long, cool 2023 growing season really shows the vibrant acidity all three varieties deliver from our vines. Fermented and aged in stainles steel and concrete with no ML. Clearly my favorite Unti white wine, and one that will likely age well over the next 2-3 years.

66% Sangiovese, 34% Montepulciano

Segromigno is our homage to Italy's Rosso Piceno, which is a blend of Sangiovese and Montepulciano. Our 2022 Segromigno shows why Sangiovese and Montepulciano are such compatible blending partners. The Sangiovese, from our Benchland property has bright cherry fruit and nice acidity. The Montepulciano, from vines we planted in 2007, provides body, texture and classic plum, cassis flavors. Segromigno is very Italian-like, and not surprisingly, it is one of our most popular wines.

75% Grenache, 25% Syrah

Our 2022 Grenache comes from our Alban clone blocks planted in 1998. This clone has always produced very expressive aromas and solid structure, which is especially evident in 2022. We blended this intensely fruity Grenache with Syrah from our Benchland vineyard, planted in 1991. The wine shows that classic tension between being fruit forward and firm, similar to the better wine Rhone wines from Rasteau and Vacqueyras. It is showing well now, and will improve over the next 2 to 4 years.

50% Falanghina, 35% Biancolella, 15% Fiano  

The '23 Bianco comes from our young vine Southern Italian whites. Falanghina drives this wine with its bright floral fruit and acidity. Bincolella softens the acidity, and Fiano adds texture, body and structure. Fermented and aged in Stainless steel and concrete tanks, this is a glimpse into the future of California white wine, at an everyday wine price.

100% Vermentino

The long, cool 2023 growing season produced some of our raciest white wines. We now have 3 clones of Vermentino, which really give this '23 a more serious complexity, depth and structure. As you know, we love how Vermentino performs in Dry Creek, regardless of the vintage. It's fermented and aged in stainless steel to preserve Vermentino's expressive floral and fruity character,  using no malo-lactic fermentation to preserve it's live acidity. We love Vermentino in Dry Creek Valley! 620 cases produced

Our Barbera comes from vines we planted in 1998 and 2018. 2022 was an excellent vintage for Barbera thanks to some warm weather in September. Winemaker Jason Valent says it his favorite Barbera since 2015. It has the classic dark color, exotic fruit, and bright acidity we've come to love about Barbera from Dry Creek Valley.

MAGNUM

85% Grenache Noir,  15% Mourvedre

Very few California wineries take rosé as seriously as we do here at Unti. Since 2002, we have been making rosé from our estate grown, organically farmed Grenache and Mourvedre - the varieties used in the best Provencal rosé, Bandol. Our vines are now over 25 years-old, and in the cool 2023 growing season they produced a classic aromatic and full-bodied Rosé, with racy acidity. This 2023 is a perfect example of why our customers feel we make the most Provencal-like Rosé in California.

The perfect wine to bring to a holiday party.
