Watch Hill Vineyard Clairette 2025

2025 vintage. First 2025! Tasted with the winemaker Matt and apparently the first person-outside of the winery-to taste it. Medium body. Spicy little finish. Just bottled and could use a power nap. Still…plenty delicious. Minuscule amount made. 3.23.26. — 3 months ago

Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2020

From the winemaker: Radian Vineyard is a radical and challenging site with high altitudes, vertical canyons, and difficult soil compositions. A stressed vineyard makes the best wines. Interesting cola or cherry cola on the nose. Earthy and medium bodied with a balance of fruit and a damp soil. Soft tannins and a nice finish. — 9 months ago

Santa Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2020

This is the La Encantada Vineyard Pinot and might be one of the best from this producer. Nice fruit forward of black cherry, cola, star anise and cracked pepper. Love the earthy and floral nose of this single-vineyard wine. Big fan of this. Not so much on the other vineyards. — 8 months ago

Rancho la Viña Vineyard Pinot Noir 2023

Kessler-Haak Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018

2018 vintage. Winemaker Matt Brady tames the hedonism of the Santa Rita Hills (only for a spell, don’t fret) and adds a little body, earth and spicefest to this offering. Doesn’t hurt that the juice is from 100% Pommard (muscular/hevvy Pinot) clone. Ruffly, 150 cases made. Find you do, acquire you must. — 4 years ago

Ronda Petit Verdot 2015

The estate’s flagship wine, Samsara is 100% Petit Verdot from Ronda in southern Spain, a region that is gaining certain notoriety for its Petit Verdot. A late ripening grape variety, Petit Verdot is a minor ingredient in Bordeaux blends where it often fails to ripen properly. But it seems to thrive in warmer regions like Australia, certain parts of California and here in Ronda, where it was first introduced in the early 1990s. Grapes are sourced from El Juncal vineyard, a very cool site at about 2,800 ft elevation, on clay-sandy soils. Fermented with indigenous yeasts (50% whole-cluster) and aged in French and Hungarian oak for 9 months. Dense, dark ruby color. Dark fruit on the nose and palate. Herbal and balsamic notes and a whiff of cinnamon. Complex, structured, very smooth tannins. — 5 years ago
