RATINGS

95Robert M. Parker Jr.

...perfume of smoky hazelnuts intermixed with exotic lychee, honeysuckle, peach, & beeswax notes is followed by a full-bodied wine with multilayered texture that pulls back in the finish to reveal surprising uplift, acidity, & lightness...

94Stephen Tanzer

Roasted, oaky aromas of peaty Islay scotch and smoke, with a strong mineral component. Fascinating combination of a firm pear skin edge and lively acids and superripe flavors of pineapple, peach nectar and honeysuckle.

REGION

United States, California, Central Coast

Central Coast AVA is a huge wine producing area that extends from Santa Barbara County in the south to San Francisco in the north. With more than 100,000 vineyard acres, it includes parts of six counties near the Pacific Ocean. Nearly 20 smaller AVAs lie within the Central Coast AVA. Central Coast earned appellation status in 1985. Included in the appellation are parts of the counties of Contra Costa, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Nearly every grape varietal grown in California is grown somewhere in the Central Coast AVA, though Chardonnay accounts for nearly 50% of the entire wine grape crop.
