Dogwood & Thistle produces wines from Mendocino County in California's North Coast, a region defined by cool maritime influence and diverse soil types that support both classic and distinctive varietals. The winery's Carignan—a Spanish-origin grape prized for its structure and dark fruit character—stands as a flagship expression, joined by a Pinot Noir that captures the elegance typical of cooler coastal sites. A Sauvignon Blanc rounds the portfolio, offering the bright acidity and aromatic intensity the variety is known for. Wine Enthusiast has rated across the range, with the Carignan and Pinot Noir earning scores in the low 90s. The winery's focus on these three varietals reflects both the terroir of Mendocino and a deliberate approach to varietal expression.
