A Sense of Place.
Working with this geographically diverse array of sites and working closely with an equally diverse array of vineyard managers and owner-farmers, Ricciato has honed a strong individual sense of what he looks for in vineyards that defines quality and character. From the beginning, Ricciato consistently felt the draw of the deep forests and rugged coastline of Northern California. That draw has never gone away, and his desire to work with vineyards in these locales, tucked in the hills and down rough dirt roads, is what drives him to find fresh sources of inspiration for Marnet today and into the future.
