Weingut Gunther Steinmetz
 

Stefan and Sammie Steinmetz’s excellent cuvees first landed on our shelves in 2022. As purveyors of one of the largest, deepest, and finest collection of German Rieslings in the United States, it’s pretty hard to impress us. But impress, they did.
 
Their wines are from incredibly steep terrain along the banks of the Mosel on vines grown without fertilizers, herbicides or insecticides. Their environmentally-friendly mindset is carried into the winery, where the wines are fermented with naturally occurring yeasts and without additives or animal proteins (often found in fining agents). Their commitment to organic viticulture on challenging, steep slopes and minimal intervention winemaking yields wines of extraordinary concentration and breathtaking character.

One of the preeminent names in Burgundy, Étienne de Montille of Domaine de Montille, sought out land on the West Coast of America to craft Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. He approached the new project with a Burgundian sensibility, so it was only natural that he focused on the Santa Rita Hills in Santa Barbara County. (Oregon was probably his next stop.) The Santa Rita Hills region seems to pull at French hearts, as it did with the late Philippe Cambie in his joint project with Adam Lee of Siduri, named Beau Marchais.
 
And draw even more French folk, it did. Étienne shared the news with his friend Rodolphe Péters of Champagne’s top-class grower estate, Pierre Péters, who quickly signed on and became the sparkling wine consultant for the project.
