Motto Winery
Motto wines are a collection of district, dark, rich wines from California that deliver a definitively bold wine experience. Their winemaking team has thought of new ways to defy ordinary by taking a new approach to making California wine – learning the rules, so they could break them with style. The resulting wines are dark and bold, yet fruit-forward.
California
Grapes were sourced from vineyards across California’s sun drenched valleys. The wine aged with a combination of oak to add texture and complexity as well as stainless steel tanks to retain freshness and character. Lots were kept separately throughout fermentation to allow the wine to evolve and reveal its true character and complexities.
