Annia is Massicans flagship, and its honors are near endless. It has taken a top-10 spot on Wine Enthusiasts Enthusiast 100 AND landed on Wine Spectators Top 100. Its been poured at The French Laundry and The Restaurant at Meadowood, and is currently on the lists at MICHELIN-starred La Toque, Village Pub, Spruce, and more.

Wonderfully aromatic, medium-bodied, and the perfect pairing for grilled whitefish on a warm summer evening, this bottle represents the full promise of Napa Valley white winewhich is why youll see some of the greatest winemakers in Napa Valley picking up their allocations at Massican release parties. The 2022 edition, from a harvest that produced whites of flawless acidity and freshness, is yet another great from Petroski. Were proud to share it with you.

Dan was the longtime winemaker at legendary producer Larkmead, and he never wanted to stress about selling Massican, so he always kept production one step behind demand. But now, considering how Massican has risen in the estimation of wine lovers the world over, that whole one step behind demand thing is a stark understatement: Theres just not enough to go around.

Thats especially true with Annia, which is one of the must-have wines made in California right now. It brings together three grapes: old-vine Tocai Friulano, Chardonnay that Dan sources from the famed Hyde Vineyard in Carneros, and Ribolla Gialla. The blend is never scientific, he told us. It never repeats, and its never from a recipe. Its about What does it smell and feel like? I structure the wine like Im building a house. The Tocai is the walls, the floor is Ribollaits earthy and savory. Then the Chardonnay is the furniture, the accents, the artwork, and the rug that really ties the room together.

This is one of Californias very few indispensable white wines. Do not miss it.
