The pairing began in 2010, their first vintage working with Vermentino, when the two found their instincts for the variety diverged enough that compromise wasn't possible. The Hers sells significantly more than the His, though both have developed a following among California natural wine retailers. The Las Brisas site's extreme western Carneros location and cold-climate conditions produce Vermentino with more tension and salinity than the variety typically shows in warmer Mediterranean-referencing California sites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eRyme Cellars was founded by Ryan and Megan Glaab in Forestville, in the Russian River Valley. The project is built around varieties the couple believes are underexplored in California, with Vermentino as the flagship alongside Aglianico, Ribolla Gialla, and others. Elaine Chukan Brown in The Wines of California describes Ryme as one of the state's most compelling explorations of Italian varieties in a California context.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Revel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51196028092722,"sku":null,"price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/3206\/7378\/files\/7_bfb34fa6-4979-4766-9cca-3baa855e21a1.webp?v=1779488065","url":"https:\/\/slakesf.com\/products\/ryme-las-brisas-vineyared-2024-vermentino-carneros","provider":"SLAKE San Francisco Bottle \u0026 Sundry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
