This wine's aroma shows green apple, ripe pear, & caramel. Medium bodied on the palate with flavours of lemon sorbet, white peach & pineapple coming to the fore with a hint of vanilla on the finish. Once crushed & pressed, fermentation occurred in primarily neutral French oak barrels which lent a subtle vanilla character to the wine without overwhelming the delicious Chardonnay fruit character produced in the vineyard. During primary fermentation the barrels were stirred by hand every three weeks to add greater texture & ensure that fermentation progress uninterrupted. A partial malo-lactic fermentation allowed this wine to preserve its natural acidity, which balances the ripe fruit flavours & cleanses the palate. ...

Ruby & violet coloured in the glass, this wine shows aromas of blueberry, dried loganberries & hints of vanilla & cloves On the palate, bright fruit flavours of raspberries, red currants & blackberries integrate with a sharp mid palate acidity & fresh silky tannins on the finish. The GSM is one of the more complex wines that the winery creates. Rather than focusing on pure varietal character, the GSM Red Blend requires that each part of the blend play its own part. Grenache is the most fruit forward & lightest of the three components, & it drives the aroma & flavour profile of the wine. The majority of the Grenache in this blend is from the Arroyo Seco AVA, where it produces denser & more concentrated wines than examples grown in areas like Paso Robles or Southern France. The mid palate of the blend is carried primarily by Syrah, which in addition to contributing a lush mouthfeel supplies subtle peppery & blueberry notes. The Syrah component is especially vivid as it comes from Hahn's cool climate vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands, & its structure & darker flavours are perfect counterpoint to the brightness of the Grenache. The Mourvedre thrives in the hotter areas, so we have to venture outside of Monterey County to find it. Mourvedre's considerable tannins & acidity help provide the backbone for the flavours of the other components. ...

This wine is softly aromatic, offering initial fragrances of ripe apricot & pineapple. A taste reveals a clean mouthfeel supported by apple & green citrus flavours leading to a crisp finish. This Pinot Gris hails from maritime-influenced vineyards in Monterey County, where cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean slow down ripening & allow extended hang times. These conditions produce vibrant flavour & highlight the varietal's brisk acidity. Once harvested, the grapes for this wine were fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The cool & neutral fermentation preserved delicate floral & tree fruit aromas, & yielded a buoyant & refreshing finish. ...
