I don’t make a practice of asking questions in print that I can’t answer, but: Why can’t more California wineries make wines at this superb quality level and sell them for less than $25 or $30? This is phenomenal over-achiever that is attractively aromatic and generously flavored, with a finish enlivened by an edge of citrus acidity.
