Joyce Wine Company’s home turf is cool-climate Arroyo Seco, where wind, fog, and rocky soils produce wines of precision and aromatic depth. 

  • WINEMAKER: Russell Joyce

  • FARMING: Organic

  • VARIETY: 100% Albariño

  • TERROIR: Sourced from the Mission Ranch and Cedar Lane vineyards in the Arroyo Seco AVA, characterized by rocky, granitic soils and a cooling marine influence that extends the growing season

  • VINIFICATION: Grapes are foot-trodden and left on skins for 10 hours before pressing; fermented in stainless steel with native yeasts to preserve freshness and varietal purity

  • AGING: Aged on fine lees for 4 months in stainless steel to enhance texture and complexity

  • TASTING NOTES: Aromas of ripe apple, honey, and pastry lead into flavors of green apple, lime zest, and pear flesh, with a crisp, mineral-driven finish

  • FOOD PAIRINGS: Complements shellfish, oysters, sashimi, or salads with citrus vinaigrette

  • SCORES: 92 – Wine Enthusiast (2023 vintage)
