Product Details

Vineyards that have characters that stand on their own to tell a story of land and people are the heart of Ancient Oak. This selection is 2 bottles each (if ordering 6 bottles) or 4 bottles each (if ordering a 12 bottle case) of the following wines:

  • Siebert Ranch is a hillside vineyard in the Eastern Hills of the Russian River Valley. With the "opportunity" created by being wiped out in the 2017 wildfire to replant his Grandpa Henry's vineyard, Ken chose to replace a former sheep yard and barn with a block of Chardonnay vines, reflecting his decades of experience living on and farming this land that is so dear to his heart. We planted Hyde/old Wente and clone 76/heritage Sterling musqué clones. Barrel-fermented using native primary and secondary fermentation, sur lies with bâttonage and barrel aged 16 months in French oak barrels, about 25% new, produces this savory, spicy, bright Chardonnay with generous mouthfeel. 96 Points, Editor's Choice, Wine Enthusiast
  • Siebert Ranch Pinot is a full-bodied Pinot with an explosion of vibrant red berry on the palate, scents of warm black raspberries, red plums, and kirsch, with hints of faded roses, lavender, cloves, and cinnamon, and firm yet plush tannins that frame a lingering finish. Native yeast fermentation. Barrel aged 18-20 months in French oak barrels, about 30% new. 94 Points, Wine Enthusiast
  • Pamela and Glen Gunsalus planted their 10 acres of Pinot Noir on a west/northwest-facing slope of a hilltop in the Green Valley of the Russian River Valley in 2001. They continue to live on the vineyard, and farm it with the scientific precision that speaks to their professional careers prior to becoming farmers, and the love that comes from decades of living on and personally farming the land. Dijon clones of Pinot Noir, grown on Goldridge loam soil, produces this wine with bright red fruit character, energetic acidity, and distinctive structure. 95 Points, Wine Enthusiast
