Carte Blanche Wine

Nicholas Allen’s Napa Valley label draws on his upbringing around two old Bordeaux châteaux while making Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, and The Mark in California. Hands-on vineyard management, no-till farming, composting, cover crops, and Atelier Melka’s classical winemaking shape balanced, fruit-forward wines meant to age.
