Introducing Nom de Guerre—with Halcyon as our true identity, Nom de Guerre (literal translation = war name) is our pseudonym we’ll use to make everything else.

The Ascona Vineyard sits at the top of an eastern ridge in the Santa Cruz Mountains. The vineyard's soils are vaqueros sandstone and the surrounding environment thick forest.

Native fermentation with 100% whole cluster inclusion, followed by 18 months in neutral oak. We had a soft touch in the cellar, thus highlighting the fruit and the site’s full potential.

Tasting notes: Floral, red fruit, and spice
