Stark

Single-vineyard Sonoma County wines: Barbera, Syrah, Grenache Blanc.

Stark produces wines from Sonoma County's North Coast region, drawing on vineyard sites that express the area's diverse terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on distinctive varietals: Barbera from Damiano Vineyard, Syrah from Eaglepoint Ranch, and Grenache Blanc from Saarlos Vineyard. These wines have been evaluated by Wine Enthusiast. The Damiano Vineyard Barbera and Eaglepoint Ranch Syrah represent the core of the winery's output, with the latter showcasing the region's capacity for structured Syrah. Grenache Blanc, less common in California, adds textural complexity to the range. Sonoma County's cool maritime influence and varied microclimates support both the ripe-fruit character typical of North Coast reds and the aromatic potential of white varieties. Stark's focus on single-vineyard designations suggests an emphasis on site-specific expression across its releases.
