Description
Pulido~Walker Estate Vineyards and Winery | Exclusive Etched Magnum Duo
Description:
The patient journey to "Pursue the Possible" at Pulido~Walker has been guided by a tenacious commitment to excellence, striving for perfection of every element in single-vineyard designate wines. The first growth Pulido~Walker Mt. Veeder Estate Vineyard is stunningly situated above the fog line at the southern end of the Mt. Veeder nested appellation.
Nearly a decade after acquiring these extraordinary 115 acres and collecting data on its microclimates and soils, the best 15 acres were meticulously planted to 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Chardonnay. Dividing the vineyard into 18 micro blocks-some as small as half an acre-gave winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown total freedom in clonal selection. The peaks and swales in a mountain vineyard that can make for uneven ripening remain unplanted here, allowing for truly consistent exposure. Mark Pulido and Donna Walker are immensely gratified that right out of the gate, the debut vintage from the Mt. Veeder Estate delivers wine with a distinct personality, reflective of its place of origin.
