- The aromatics remain fresh and youthful, yet below the surface lies mystery and complexity – herb-encrusted lamb, graphite, freshly-cut lavender, and cherry liqueur. The palate of the wine starts with such a distinct sensation, like the first spoonful of chocolate mousse, followed by a complex and structured mid-palate that cradles a very full and compelling finish.
The company motto is˜Wine is a Journey, not a Destination and gives a clear indication of the ethos of Donelan Family Wines.Founded by Joe Donelan, who now runs the business alongside his sons Cushing and Tripp, Donelan is a small, boutique Sonoma winery producing Syrah, Grenache, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Roussanne and Viognier. Producing just 8,000 cases per year they prize quality over all other factors. Simply put, they think wine should taste great and work with every vintage and every grape, to achieve this goal, always recognising that next year will bring another step on the road.
They believe that the best wines are not made but discovered and take pride in harnessing the greatest qualities and natural variations in a vineyard and a variety.
