Mazette aims to capture the spirit of our slice of California and the immense energy expended to take our grapes to the glass. Every decision in the cellar is an extension of our experiences farming throughout the season. We believe that our farming and vineyard sourcing coupled with our intentional process in the cellar infuses a certain “aliveness” in our wines – an honest representation of time, place and process, captured in a bottle. 

Fermentations are spontaneous, carried out by native yeast. We use minimal sulfur, refrain from additions, and let the wines take shape naturally. Most all red wines are fermented whole cluster with little destemming, if at all. White wines are barrel fermented. All wines are aged in neutral French oak barrels. 

The result is a range of fine wines, and some wines (like our sparkling Blanc de Blancs) that belong at a long, lingering dinner just as much as they do a house party. We strive to make all our wines accessible and transparent.
