Outstanding and very limited production. All vintages are great. Found mainly in the Solvang/SYV areas. — 9 years ago

I promise I'll start sharing wines that are available!! This is a good one though. The Epoch folks, like many Paso/Templeton/Hwy 46 friends, do wonders with Rhone red blends. Yum. This one is drier and more serious - something to savor independently. — 9 years ago

I am so glad to have discovered White Rock thanks to Kent Higginbotham and friends. I drank my last one just a couple of weeks ago. This is a classic cab and super fun to really explore. You'll go deep on these! — 9 years ago

Classic Santa Rita Hills Pinot. Not sour, crappy Pinot like so many (even purportedly "good" ones :-)). Would appeal to both Burgundian/Pac North West lovers as well as fruitier CA Pinot lovers. A "centrist" Pinot. User friendly. Won't jump to high nines but very solid, always safe to get. — 9 years ago

Just had this a hour ago, and it is an absolute favorite. It's history in a bottle. This is not syrupy modern dessert wine, it is a classic. Structure and delicate. Makes me want to sit by a big fireplace in a candlelit room with a good book. — 9 years ago

This was really great. Had great structure and seriousness like a balanced Primativo. Not a fruit bomb for sure. Glad to see have had a friend give me some! Santa Clara Valley - don't see that every day! :-) — 9 years ago
