John Benedetti presents one of his best vintages yet.
Saveria Vineyard is one of the highest quality vineyards in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Planted and managed by Prudy Foxx in the late 90’s, this vineyard sits on Pleasant Valley, neighbors to the equal Lester Family Vineyard. Discover Pinot Noir and Petite Sirah at this low sitting (600ft) vineyard, embraced by morning fog and hot afternoons.
