Gringet What was your first experience with an undiscovered grape? A difficult question to answer, by nature I'm drawn to the road less traveled, or in this case wine grapes obscured from popular enjoyment over time. In my earliest days exploring wine grapes I had a keen interest in lesser-known varieties. Gringet really piqued my interest then, and I'm still fascinated by it today. So much so that I've planted it in my vineyards along the California Central Coast in Cambria and San Simeon. When I taste Gringet it takes me back to my visits...

Founded by Rebekah Wineburg in 2012, Post & Vine works exclusively with sustainably-farmed old vines and implements a meticulous, low-intervention mentality in the cellar to produce small amounts of artisanal, site-specific wines that deeply reflect the unique places from which they come. All of our wines are produced from hand-harvested fruit, indigenous yeasts, and are bottled unfined and unfiltered. The resulting wines are joyful, honest, and deeply speak to their place of origin. What is your favorite undiscovered grape? Carignane is my favorite "undiscovered" grape and is the focus of my work at Post & Vine. I have always been captivated by the depth and character that old vines bring to our wines. Old vines possess deep root systems that access nutrients and minerals from far below the surface. They are in perfect balance with their...

The name San Rucci is the combination of our two family names - the San Filippo's and the Becherucci's. Because we do not own any vineyards, we can work with grape growers throughout the state to craft a variety of wines, including some Italian varieties that are not often found throughout the New World. Salute! What is your favorite undiscovered grape? Montepulciano, because it is delicious! What was your first experience with an undiscovered grape? I was at an industry event. The event had a tasting of wines made from lesser-known grape varieties. The variety that surprised me the most at the time was Graciano. Since then, it has been very fun tasting other lesser-known varieties that are being grown throughout California and the US. What do you love most about the undiscovered grapes?

After working his first harvest under the guidance of Nate Walsh in 2012, Callan began traveling abroad to seek out winemaking apprenticeships around the New World, working in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Paso Robles, and Chile. Working a furious schedule of 2 or 3 harvests a year, he would rack up 20 vintages in half as many years, learning from Chris Alheit, Pedro Parra, and Raj Parr. The Covid years brought his travels to an abrupt end and Callan, settling in Paso Robles, California, would turn his attention to his own project. Inspired by the “California Burgundy” wines of Pre-Prohibition (a tradition continued up through the 1970s by legendary producers like BV), Callan sought to resurrect a forgotten style that hearkens back to California’s earliest winemaking traditions. The wine is built around the old workhorse grapes of premodern California, often misidentified and sometimes now existing...

Starfield Vineyards is known for its high elevation mountain vineyards in El Dorado and the fresh wines from rare varieties that exhibit the characteristic Sierra Spice from growing grapes in the pine forests of California. What is your favorite undiscovered grape? Cinsaut is my personal favorite. It was hard to find varietal examples of it before we planted it and it looks almost like a table grape, but it produces a light red wine with vibrant strawberry notes and a hint of leafy-bramble. It’s great straight from the fridge on hot California summer days. What was your first experience with an undiscovered grape? I always felt like I gravitated toward lesser known grapes so it’s hard to pinpoint the exact moment. I remember going through Cabernet Franc and...

What is your favorite undiscovered grape? It's unfair to ask us this! So, let's go with the two rarest grapes we grow. On the white side Picardan. When we planted our half-acre it increased the world's footprint by 40%. And on the red side, Vaccarese, where when we bottled it in 2019, we think it was the first 100% Vaccarese from anywhere in the world in 50+ years. What was your first experience with an undiscovered grape?
