2013 Poor Ranch Zinfandel, Mendocino County 750ml 3-Pack
The Poor Ranch was first planted in the 1880s on a hillside east of Hopland, in Mendocino County. The vineyard is dry-farmed organically. The vines have never been irrigated. The vineyard blocks range from 860′- 1800′ elevation, and are almost always high above the fog that can affect much of Mendocino County.
After a grand tour of the vineyard, we selected the Gypsy Block for our first Zinfandel. This 1.67-acre block was planted at 1500′ in 1987. It has yielded a mere 1.75 tons to the acre over the past decade. We visited often to check on the vines. On September 25, 2013, we picked 2.8 tons. Although the Brix was quite low, at 22.5, flavors were amazing.
The finished wine is a rare thing – a Zinfandel under 14% alcohol. It is a beautiful wine, with complex fruit flavors and a deliciously silky texture. Zinfandel is often recommended for the Thanksgiving table, and this example would shine along such traditional, rich fare.
We are proud of this wine and we hope that you enjoy it as much as we do. We look forward to working with the Poor family long into the future.
2013 Bea's Knees Petite Sirah, Oberti Vineyard, Suisun Valley, California 750ml 3-Pack
Petite Sirah thrives in Suisun Valley, and will probably emerge as its signature varietal. Everything we love about Petite Sirah is abundant in the Oberti Vineyard grapes-rich, densely concentrated flavors, intense color and tannins that are formidable but not forbidding. Our 2013 Bea's Knees Petite Sirah is richly flavored, with aromas of blackberry, blueberry, and dark chocolate-covered cherries, along with hints of baking spices. On the palate it is rich, dense, and long, with firm but not overbearing tannins.

PWR - People's Wine Revolution
Husband and wife team Matt Reid and Marcy Webb conceived The People’s Wine Revolution to bring great wines to all at reasonable prices. Our goal is to make wines every bit as good as those we made for our day jobs, but at a fraction of the price. PWR is now our full-time pursuit.
Matt completed the UC-Davis Viticulture & Enology M.S. program in 2003. He has been the winemaker at Seavey Vineyard and Quixote Winery, and the Custom Crush Winemaker at Failla Wines. He is currently winemaker for Benessere Vineyards and Consulting Winemaker for Burgess Cellars.
Marcy’s background is public health (epidemiology), but her quick, scientific mind has led to positions at The Napa Wine Company, Franciscan and Chalk Hill. She is the assistant winemaker for Ballentine Vineyards.
We have a six-year-old daughter, Beatrix, who is our inspiration.
