    Winemaker Notes

    This 2014 "Pinks" is made with free run juice from various Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir vineyards, and Valdiguie from French Camp and Shell Creek vineyards near Shandon. The Pinot portion adds a bit of richness and roundness to this wine, without taking away from the refreshing light nature. We enjoy the Valdiguie here for its lively crisp and refreshing strawberry scented aspect. These grapes are combined to create a young, dry rose that drinks well before dinner, makes a wonderful "wake up call" for the palate, and can match lighter foods very well. This can be enjoyed very young for it freshness, and will gain richness and complexity over the next year. We think this is an impeccable rose that gives joy in a light and refreshing manner, and can be enjoyed in any season, and in any setting.

    Whether it’s playful and fun or savory and serious, most rosé today is not your grandmother’s White Zinfandel, though that category remains strong. Pink wine has recently become quite trendy, and this time around it’s commonly quite dry. Since the pigment in red wines comes from keeping fermenting juice in contact with the grape skins for an extended period, it follows that a pink wine can be made using just a brief period of skin contact—usually just a couple of days. The resulting color depends on grape variety and winemaking style, ranging from pale salmon to deep magenta.

    The largest and perhaps most varied of California’s wine-growing regions, the Central Coast produces a good majority of the state's wine. This vast California wine district stretches from San Francisco all the way to Santa Barbara along the coast, and reaches inland nearly all the way to the Central Valley.

    Encompassing an extremely diverse array of climates, soil types and wine styles, it contains many smaller sub-AVAs, including San Francisco Bay, Monterey, the Santa Cruz Mountains, Paso Robles, Edna Valley, Santa Ynez Valley and Santa Maria Valley.

    While the Central Coast California wine region could probably support almost any major grape varietiy, it is famous for a few Central Coast reds and whites. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel are among the major ones. The Central Coast is home to many of the state's small, artisanal wineries crafting unique, high-quality wines, as well as larger producers also making exceptional wines.
