The color is reminiscent of a beautiful Santa Ynez Valley sunset - golden, copper, and orange. The nose is focused and complex with nutty apple, pear, citrus, and mineral aromas that evolve to reveal some butterscotch and caramel with air. It comes across much riper than a 12.7% alcohol Chardonnay. The mouth is very complex and interesting with bright, focused candied lemon, chalk (from the clay pots), lime, pear, apple, and mineral flavors. The texture exhibits a nice softness and roundness that is balanced by the grip from the tannins and acid providing a nice edge to the wines’ creaminess. While light on its feet, the wine is packed with flavor. The finish is stunning, lasting well over a minute where the citrus and mineral flavors slowly evolve into Asian pear and caramel notes. The bright acid helps keep the flavors pumping through the finish. 

A bit lighter in color than past vintages of this wine, the 2019 Estate Grenache does not lack in aroma, flavor, or structure. The cooler vintage in 2019 highlights more of the spice element in Grenache, with aromas and flavors of white pepper, bakers spice, pomegranate, strawberry, and a hint of vanilla. Textured and round, the 2019 has good acidity that carries the flavors on a very long finish. A wonderfully elegant vintage of this powerful wine, the 2019 Estate Grenache will age nicely over the next 12-15 years.

Another amazing wine coming from the 2018 vintage! We have reigned in the tannins of the Block Eight Grenache in 2018 by including whole cluster fermentation into the program. At 30% stem inclusion, the wine has more roundness and finer tannins than it has had in the past while still holding onto its powerful ripe fruit which has become a trademark of this Grenache wine. Deep rich fruits including pomegranate, strawberry, dark cherry, and raspberry are vibrant in the 2018 PMV Block Eight Grenache. 

A great wine from a great vintage, enough said! The 2018 Purisima Mountain Vineyard Block Six Syrah is filled with intense blackberry fruit, smoke, pepper, minerals, and wild game flavors and aromas. The wine is full bodied with some big tannins that will allow the wine to age wonderfully. It is a bit young today, so decanting is recommended if you decide to open it in the next few years. Enjoy it over the next 25-30 years. 

The 2018 TLB has complex, powerful, and rich aromas of black fruits, graphite, wildflowers, savory herbs, lavender, and blue fruits. Plush and round in the mouth, the TLB has amazing depth, richness, and length on the palette. Flavors of plum, blackberry, licorice, tobacco, and more savory herbs have amazing persistence with a very long finish that lasts well over one minute. Fully integrated and ready to drink now, the wine will age effortlessly for 25+ years. Perhaps the best TLB wine we have ever produced (perhaps the finest wine we have ever bottled) from the now legendary 2018 vintage.
