Growth is not the ultimate goal

In forgotten vineyards, we find our true abundance

We improvise, we thrive, and we cherish every precious yield

In a small town amongst the mountains and vines. We don’t seek to dominate or conquer but coexist with the land in the gentle embrace, and craft wines that capture the spirit of the Ojai Valley.

Fabien, Elizabeth, Jeremy, Griffin, and Jason, a band of misfits and rebels come together in a raucous blend.

From winemaker to restauranteur, engineer to brewer, their shared goal is to create a unique blend, vintage after vintage.

  • Décroissance (degrowth) - Orange Sparkling Piquette - stands as a symbol of sustainable winemaking with its unique Piquette style. It used to be made by vineyard workers who recovered grape skins and stems, after pressing, to make a modest 7% alcohol wine, to consume while working the fields or the cellar. This wine is a testament to the philosophy of Degrowth that does not leave any part of the harvest go to waste.

  • Magie Blanche - Sparkling Grenache Blanc - An exquisite ensemble of hedonistic pleasures and velvety textures, casting an unforgettable spell of indulgence upon the senses.

    "Arts Noirs" is the epitome of boldness and hedonism, characterized by its velvety, dense nature. This Grenache Blanc exudes confidence with every sip, revealing a rich and robust flavor profile. Its dense texture is complemented by a voluptuous blend of deep fruit flavors and a complex, lasting finish that leaves a memorable impression on the palate.

  • Love / Hate - Sauvignon Blanc - A dance of contrasts, where the freshness of love meets the edge of rebellion

    This wine is textured and angular, with a grassy vivacity that speaks to its Californian roots. It offers a distinct Sauvignon Blanc experience, balancing a fresh and herbaceous bouquet with a structured, almost geometric palate. The wine's profile is a duality of smooth, curvy love and sharp, rigid hate, providing a sensory journey from classic freshness to bold, modern edges—embodying the wine's thematic juxtaposition.

  • Moment - Rosé of Grenache - Capturing, in a glass, the fleeting blush of Ojai's sunset.

    It weaves flowery and fruity notes with a deep velvety texture that obfuscates a bright acidity shining underneath. It has the density of serious wines but one can miss it, hidden behind a seamless, harmonious experience.

  • Anarchy - Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Barbera & Pinot Noir.- Sparkling Rosé - In every bubble, a Californian defiance: Reimagining the champagne style with a raw, spirited essence of nature’s variety, and an impulse to push back against the norm.

    The wine is effervescent with a tapestry of flavors—ripe with orchard fruits, kissed by the sun, and imbued with a minerality as profound as the valley's pink-streaked twilight.

  • Liberté -Mourvèdre- “To be free is to rise above the limitations of one’s own thinking.” Earthy depths blend seamlessly with a bold spice palette.

    "Liberté" is an embodiment of the rich, historical depth of Mourvèdre, infused with the spirit of the Enlightenment. This wine offers a profound exploration of flavors, where earthy depths mingle with a bold spice palette, evoking the intellectual vigor of an era defined by discovery and reason. Its profile is both intricate and robust, providing a sensory experience that is as enlightening as it is satisfying.

  • Luné Grenache Noir - As the moon rises, the Alisal vineyard comes alive. Fragrant berries and powerful spices intertwine.

    This wine radiates with the warmth of ripe red fruits, interlaced with a hint of Ojai's herbaceous breeze. The palate is a harmonious medley of robust berry flavors and a powerful spiciness, reflecting the vibrant and spirited character of the region.

  • Singularity - Syrah - An improbable interplay of fruity, mineral and animal under a lean and poised tannic structure.

    This wine defies the ordinary, offering a flavor profile that challenges the palate while symbolizing the harmony found in unity. Each sip brings a deep, resonant earthiness, interwoven with a bold spiciness that reflects its daring character.

  • No Mind Pinot Noir - “Sip in silence, for in the absence of thought, we find our essence”. A cool coastal contrast between deep fruitiness and savory musky tones.

    This wine is a subtle dance of complexity and simplicity, with layered earthy notes harmoniously intertwined with delicate fruit and spice. It's a reflective journey in a glass, guiding the senses towards a state of tranquil observation, where each sip is a discovery of the wine's nuanced depth.

Wine is a craft, and at best an art that manifests and captures a moment, an interpretation of the landscape, the climate, and the people that will celebrate it.
