Paysan, a label by Ian Brand, focuses on Southern French-inspired varieties, emphasizing low-intervention winemaking, bright acidity, and food-friendly balance. Known for sourcing from overlooked vineyard sites, Brand produces Paysan wines with the same attention to detail as his higher-end labels, delivering quality and character at an excellent price.

78% Mourvèdre, 11% Cinsault, 11% Grenache. Sourced from sustainably farmed vineyards in Monterey County. Direct-pressed for a pale color, fermented in stainless steel with native yeasts, and aged briefly on lees to enhance texture.

Fresh and lively with notes of wild strawberries, watermelon, citrus zest, and a hint of saline minerality. Crisp acidity and a dry, refreshing finish make it perfect for warm-weather drinking.
