About Palmina Wines
Palmina Wines is named for Palmina — an Italian feminine given name (from the Latin palma, palm tree) that Steve Clifton chose for his Italian-variety program when he departed Brewer-Clifton to focus on his Italian variety passion. The palm-tree feminine naming declares the estate's Italian identity: palm trees framing the Mediterranean landscape from which Barbera, Dolcetto, Sangiovese, and Tocai Friulano originate, the Italian variety program that California's Central Coast climate suits better than many producers recognized.
