Domaine de la Cote

Evening Land Vineyards sold its 40 acres of vineyards in the Sta. Rita Hills to winemaker Sashi Moorman, sommelier Rajat Parr, and their business partners. They plan to introduce a unique estate label, Domaine de la Cote. Moorman will make the wines using whole-cluster fermentation, no enzymes and ambient yeast. The four vineyards are just four miles from the ocean and are planted on a soil base unique to a small section of the Sta. Rita Hills known as diatomaceous earth.
