From a superb, older vineyard in the Gavilan Mountains, by Chalone and Calera. This shows the wonderful purity and grace, and the elegant red fruit intensity, which both MacPhail and Calera and Chalone are known.
I’d even put it up against many of its far more expensive neighbors in the Santa Lucia Highlands. It is above all delicious.
Sequana, by the way, is the goddess of the river Seine, especially tied to where it originates in Burgundy.
