Motto wines present a new, bold spin on traditional red wines from California. To allow the full character of each wine to evolve, we keep our wine lots separate throughout fermentation and aging, and determine final blends right before bottling. The resulting wines are dark and bold, yet fruit-forward.
Backbone is Motto's Cabernet that exudes both backbone and elegance, with a soft and delicate nose of ripe red fruit.
Unabashed is Motto's distinct Zinfandel, which balances a hint of spice with fruity sweetness.
Gung Ho is our rich, yet delicate, Red Blend that bursts with unique fruit flavors.
