3Divas
Each of the three Divas (Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne) would make an impressive wine on their own, yet together their voices create an extraordinary harmony in this delightful white Rhône blend.

Vineyard Profile: Saralee's Vineyard
Located in the alluvial plain of the Russian River Valley just two miles from the river itself, Saralee’s Vineyard has deep and fertile soils comprised of gravel, sand, and loam. On summer evenings, the cool fog rushes into the valley from the Pacific Ocean, allowing the grapes an extended growing season. With the long hang time, the grapes develop full flavor maturity while retaining the all-important natural acidity. Note that 2012 will be the last vintage of 3Divas from this historic vineyard due to new ownership
2012 Vintage
The 2012 growing season was one of the best in recent history for Sonoma County and northern California. Early spring rains, moderate summer temperatures, and a relatively dry harvest led to a classic vintage. For the Rosé, we harvested select Syrah bunches from a special section of Paolo's Vineyard two weeks before picking the rest of the grapes for our flagship red wine.
Winemaker's Goal
Each of the three Divas (Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne) would make an impressive wine on their own, yet together their voices create an extraordinarily harmonious wine. While relatively unknown in the United States, these three varietals have historically been blended together in France's Rhône Valley. More on 3Divas Winemaking ▶

"This blend of Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne is dry and crisp in acidity and shows ripe, complex flavors of peaches, limes and oranges. But the California fruit is balanced by minerality and dried herbs. Drink it now, but not too cold. —S.H."
