Traditional Cabernet. Bold and beautiful. Smoothe.

Traditional Cabernet. Bold and beautiful. Smoothe. During warm years, as it was in 2012, the Santa Ynez Valley Cabernet’s rival the world’s best.

Barrel aged and full-bodied white wine with mandarin orange aromas and a crisp balanced mouth feel. An excellent big food wine

Grown in Paso Robles on a small family farm I helped pick the fruit because the owner’s were shorthanded after one of the worker trucks broke down. Blueberry flavors in a smooth easy drinking wine.

Sourced from the same vineyard as the Malbec this is a huge, luscious, everlasting wine. For those that love deep dark swirls in their glass without an excessive tannic bite…this is your wine!

Bigger, bolder than most due to extra heat in 2015 the varietal called for robust treatment. Pinot yes, delicate…slightly. I embrace a little extra extraction and oak. Not quite performance enhancing but close. Come for Pinot and leave impressed at the possibilities.

Silky clean, smartly balanced white wine that is wonderfully packaged. The 2016 line-up presents no better lead off. Barrel fermented, aged sur lie this simple grape is now forced to express serious character.

Refreshing. Grenache is often best expressed in Rose’ forms. Pressed on the skins shortly after harvest the result is a blissfully elegant pale backdrop to balance. The tightrope between red and white. Rose’ is indeed becoming the wine for all occasions.
