Grapes: 100% Vermentino
Made by the amazing LGBTQ winemaker Rob Fisher, the distinctive name “Marine Layer,” pays homage to the thick blanket of fog that pours in from the Pacific along the Sonoma Coast. Known for cooler temperatures and extreme conditions, growing grapes in this region is undoubtedly challenging, yet the most rewarding. Longer hang-time for the grapes results in nuanced flavors, bright acidity, and balance.
Located in the heart of Carneros on a west-facing slope lies Las Brisas Vineyard (“the Breezes” in Spanish), the preeminent vineyard of Vermentino in the U.S. Daily morning fog is followed by cooling breezes from the San Pablo Bay. It’s owned by the esteemed Mahoney family, early pioneers and dedicated growers of Vermentino in California.
The 2024 Las Brisas Vineyard Vermentino glows with a luminous pale yellow hue, kissed by green reflections at the rim. Aromas of citrus blossom, sweet pea flower, and lemongrass lead into a vibrant palate of feijoa, Makrut lime, and grapefruit peel. Brisk acidity and striking minerality—think crushed limestone and sea salt—define its unmistakable cool-climate character. Zesty and invigorating, its crisp, lingering finish makes it the perfect companion for sun-drenched days and seaside moments. Pure energy in a glass.
