Jun 15th, 2022It is not solely Beeswax Vineyard, as there is a bit of Santa Barbara County Grenache Blanc in it. That means it gets a Central Coast designation. This white wine is bright, savory and full of acidity - ready for pairing with your favorite seafood. The winemaker speaks of its brininess, which I get as a bit of seashore, much as in Vermentino. There is a floral aspect, but the primary focus is on minerals and salinity. It is a fantastic white, perfect for the coming warmer months and just as good until then.

Mar 18th, 2022Pale yellow, medium-light body, mild citrus (tangerine) on the nose, starts with a harsh pithy lemon note and mellows pretty quickly

Sep 15th, 2024Lovely apricot nose, with hints of linen (fresh and dry). A little bland, not super exciting, but decent apricot on the palate.
