    COMMENTARY: The 2018 Lost Blues High Horse Grenache packs a wallop on the palate and delivers well in the finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with aromas and flavors of black fruit, mint, and spice. Enjoy it with slow-braised meat dishes. (Tasted: October 5, 2021, San Francisco, CA)

Lost Blues, California
Lost Blues Winery Image
I began working with wine as a teenager at Meridian Vineyards as a seasonal laborer. I operated the crushpad, dumping truckloads of fruit all day long with a 7-ton hoist and pulley. It was about the coolest thing I had ever done. I was instantly hooked, both on wine and the work involved in making it. I stayed there for a few years, learning everything I could, operating every piece of equipment, and gaining a true love for forklifts. I then went on to work for a few smaller wine producers, continuing to learn on the job and constantly furthering my wine education through drinking, reading, and taking classes and seminars.

Many harvests and wineries later, I crossed paths with Russell From of Herman Story Wines and we became friends. In 2011 I began working for him, and am now his Assistant Winemaker. Working for Russell and being a part of Herman Story helped me realize that my dream of making my own wines was attainable. And in 2012 Lost Blues was born.

Grenache thrives in any warm, Mediterranean climate where ample sunlight allows its clusters to achieve full phenolic ripeness. While Grenache's birthplace is Spain (there called Garnacha), today it is more recognized as the key player in the red blends of the Southern Rhône, namely Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes du Rhône and its villages. Somm Secret—The Italian island of Sardinia produces bold, rustic, single varietal Grenache (there called Cannonau). California, Washington and Australia have achieved found success with Grenache, both flying solo and in blends.

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.
