Pax, "Alder Springs", Mendocino County, 2021Pax Mahle has always been focused on producing great wines from great vineyards. From the onset of his career he channeled his energies into sourcing the best fruit he could find and, if he couldn't, would farm it himself. After the success of his initial project, Pax and his wife Pam founded the eponymous Pax Cellars. Utilizing much of the same land for this label, he started to produce an entire range of wines focused on elegance, freshness, and Old World techniques. All his grapes are hand-harvested, foot-crushed, and fermented whole cluster, a nod to his favorite producers in the Rhone, and he has continued to innovate by farming Chenin Blanc, Trousseau Gris, Gamay, and Vermentino. Alder Springs is a site he has been working with since 2005 and produces exceptional fruit around the town of Laytonville, more reminiscent of the Rhône he draws inspiration from.124
