Wine nerds making some pretty epic wine in Northern, CA.
Iconic is a project from Birk O’Halloran, a hospitality guy who cut his teeth in the New York City fine dining scene, and then landed in production many years ago. Sybil and I go way back with Birk, to when he was managing the portfolio for Acid Inc (what an amazing Italian importer that was, we still miss it). Iconic is single vineyard specialness from unique sites at terrific prices. These sites are the “icons” that supply the building blocks for greatness in wine. Oh, and the labels! Created by different comic book artists, these are so far from the norm, it is truly inspiring.
