We are always excited to have Ehren fly himself out from California (yes, hes a 
pilot) and to pour his delicious wines for our guests. It's hard to believe that it's been 14 years since he and his wife Anne-Marie founded their winery Failla back in 1998. These days Ehren is a busy man as he also makes the wines for the famed Zinfandel specialist Turley (since the '90s). This remarkable juggling act of making numerous wines for two labels, particularly given how different the resulting wines are stylistically, speaks to Ehrens great skill as a winemaker. While the wines made at Turley are mostly ultra-ripe old vine Zinfandel and Petite Sirah with Rhone weight, the wines made at Failla are sourced from cool sites on the Sonoma Coast and Green Valley. The wines of Failla, whether the savory, Cote Rotie-like Syrah or the crisp, minerally Chardonnay, are all about finesse.
