Deux Punx is a collab between two ex-punk rockers who take grapes from great old vineyards and turn them into wine of the purest expression. This one comes from the iconic Del Barba Vineyard in Oakley, planted as a field blend in the 1800s and still dry-farmed. Their goal: don't mess up these timeless grapes. Drink some California history! Label art by Andrew Schoultz.

Tasting Notes

"Ripe blackberry, dark tree fruit, a little hibiscus and a pomegranate-like snap of acidity, with a deep, savory, almost umami core. More complex and less fruit-driven than past vintages." — Harvest Wine Shop

About Deux Punx

"Aging punk rockers, Dan Schaaf and Aaron Olson began making wines together in 2008 using a battered little warehouse in Napa. Their minimalist wines use fruit from a variety of Northern California locations. Their wines - 100-plus year old head-trained Zinfandel from the Del Barba Vineyard; balanced and fun white blends from the Cecchini Vineyard in Contra Costa County; tart strawberry Grenache Noir from the Tejada family’s beautiful Lake County vineyard; Orange Chardonnay and Falanghina from up-and-coming San Benito County; and the white pepper of Albini Carneros Cabernet Franc - showcase their love of the land around them.

Each wine is produced in the same manner – spontaneous fermentation, minimal SO2, neutral oak and ambient temperatures. “We do our best to not screw with what comes out of the vineyards, not just rolling with but embracing the differences from one year to the next.”
