Founded in 2009 by Samantha Sheehan, Poe Wines is dedicated to crafting small-production, vineyard-driven wines that highlight California's exceptional cool-climate sites through a minimalist, hands-off approach. Split Rock Ranch, in Mendocino County, is a certified organic, dry-farmed vineyard rooted in well-drained Pinole gravelly loam soils, where old vines and a moderate climate produce fruit of remarkable freshness, concentration, and balance. By allowing this distinctive site to take center stage, Poe's Dolcetto offers a vibrant expression of both the variety and the unique terroir of this family-owned vineyard
