The beloved Fait-Main was started by French native Benoit Touquette after he was rocketed to winemaker stardom from his involvement with Realm Cellars. Benoit controls all aspects of Fait-Main, including partnering with lauded vineyard sites to produce wines from only the most pristine fruit sources.

2022 is the inaugural release of the ‘Willow Creek District’ bottling. Sourced from a Western pocket of Paso Robles with limestone soils and maritime influence that keep the area 10 degrees cooler than the rest of the region, the wine is surprisingly elegant. In addition to the classic black fruits we expect from California Cab, the wine also boasts bright, ripe blueberry with floral and spice notes.
