Rhys Vineyards’ 2019 Aeris Bianco “Centennial Mountain” highlights estate-grown Carricante from volcanic, high-altitude sites in Mendocino Ridge. The team, known for precision in cool-climate Pinot and Chardonnay, fermented this single-varietal naturally and aged it in neutral oak to preserve freshness.

This mid-tier bottling delivers focused minerality and vibrant tension, reflecting Aeris’s coastal-style expression. It complements Rhys’s refined lineup with a distinctive Italian grape adapted to California terroir.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2019 Bianco Centennial Mountain Vineyard (Carricante) is laced with citrus peel, mint and jasmine. This refreshing, dry white is a fine choice for drinking now and over the next few years. The Bianco is essentially a second selection of Carricante intended for near term drinking." —Antonio Galloni

Wine Enthusiast

89 points

"This is a respectful nod to the variety most commonly associated with Mount Etna. This expression maintains its telltale searing acidity among delicate expressions of lemon, lime and Granny Smith apple alongside more floral and earthy tones of chamomile, beeswax and lanolin. A wine this tart deserves something just as crispy and fresh—try prawn ceviche, apple-fennel salad or your favorite whitefish with a generous squeeze of lemon." —Stacy Briscoe

More about Rhys Vineyards

Kevin Harvey, a software entrepreneur with a Burgundy obsession, started Rhys in 2004 to prove California could make world-class Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Syrah from mountain vineyards. Seven estate vineyards in the Santa Cruz Mountains and Anderson Valley, all gravity-fed, foot-trodden, wild fermented by winemaker Jeff Brinkman. These are soil-driven wines—mineral, complex, serious. The kind of wines that make you forget you're drinking California.
