Ryan Zepaltas —Ryan Zepaltas — who spent years developing relationships with the RRV's finest biodynamically farmed vineyard sources — established Zepaltas Wines in 2007 with a conviction that tiny-quantity, single-vineyard Pinot Noir from the most carefully selected biodynamic sources consistently produces wines of greater complexity and site-specificity than any commercially scaled program can achieve.
✓
The single-vineyard lineupThe single-vineyard lineup — Walala Vineyard, Stubbs Vineyard, and other carefully selected RRV biodynamic sources — produces 200–400 cases per wine of Pinot Noir that Wine Advocate has consistently scored at 92–96 points for the cool-climate mineral precision and vineyard-specific character that Ryan Zepaltas' sourcing relationships and minimal-intervention winemaking consistently deliver.

Thursday through Monday walk-in in downtown Healdsburg — Walala and Stubbs single-vineyard biodynamic RRV Pinot Noir at 92–96 points from Ryan Zepaltas' 200-case micro-production program. One of the RRV's most critically serious and least-commercially-visible small-production discoveries.
