Chardonnay • 2023
Long and layered, with a fascinating mix of flint, yellow apples, pears and melon. This is a cohesive and harmonious wine with minerals and fruit elegantly spiced and woven together with detail and energy.

Chardonnay JSV John Sebastiano Vineyard, Sta. Rita Hills
Chardonnay • 2023
Rich and viscous on the palate, the wine shows terrific texture balanced by an underlying tension that keeps it lively and precise. Best enjoyed on the warmer side, it reveals layers of dense melon and tropical fruit that meld beautifully with notes of salted butter-topped French bread and subtle shades of cardamom.

Grenache SRH
Grenache • 2023
Dark strawberry, cherry and rhubarb aromas are lightened by red flower elements on the nose of this single-vineyard expression. The generous red fruit flavors of the palate are dusted in cinnamon and mace spices.
$65
Grenache SRH Peake Ranch, Sta. Rita Hills
Grenache • 2023
This Grenache comes from Peake Ranch on the eastern edge of Sta. Rita Hills. The cool climate yields fruit that ripens slower with optimal flavors and acid. This allows us to utilize 30% whole cluster fermentation to retain some stem tannins which add depth and complexity to this bottling.
