WINES

Our Edna Valley Vineyard 2020 Central Coast Chardonnay is a graceful, beautifully complex reflection of California’s rugged coast. Aromas and layers of green apples and white peach mingle with notes of toast and lemon zest. A vibrant mouthfeel and long, luxurious finish complete the palate.

Our 2020 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a dry, full-bodied wine with aromatics of baked raspberry preserves, sweet black licorice and peppercorns. The notes of raspberry carry through on the palate with layers of chocolate-covered cherry and a bit of cassis. The tannin structure creates chewy characteristics and the finish is long with nicely balanced fruit notes straight through.

Our 2021 Central Coast Pinot Noir is a medium-bodied, fruit-forward wine grown with a coastal influence. Bright fruit aromatics greet the nose with hints of black tea leaf and leather. The mouthfeel fills with notes of ripe raspberry and tart pomegranate. On the finish, the fruit notes are underscored with accents of pepper and toasted caramel.

Red V Blend is named after the top five varietals — Tannat, Tempranillo, Petite Sirah, Syrah and Grenache — showcased in our plush red blend. Layers of raspberry, currant and strawberry meld together, creating a medium-body palate accentuated with aromas of violet and lavender. Highlights of tart pomegranate and black currant brighten the blend, making it easy to pair.

Our Edna Valley Vineyard 2021 Sauvignon Blanc is a well-balanced wine with a distinct minerality and refreshing palate. Lively aromas of ripe grapefruit, lemon zest, lime blossom with a touch of jalapeño. Bright notes of orange marmalade, lychee and a touch of freshly cut grass brighten the palate and pull through to a crisp, cleansing finish. <br><br> <b>Pairings</b><br> Enjoy with green goddess hummus and fresh farmer's market vegetables or cold fresh-cracked crab legs. <br><br> <b>Harvest Notes</b><br> The 2021 harvest will be remembered for reduced crop size, small berries and intense flavor profiles across the board. Ongoing dry conditions affected both crop and berry size, while idyllic weather patterns allowed the fruit to ripen slowly and evenly. Edna Valley is renowned its rich oceanic and volcanic soils, cool Pacific breezes, and warm sunny days. Overall quality in 2021 was outstanding. <br><br> <b>Winemaking Notes</b><br> We harvested our Sauvignon Blanc grapes when they had developed optimal balance and desirable citrus and tropical fruit notes. A variety of specialty yeasts were used to showcase the varietal characteristics and bring them to the wine’s forefront. We fermented in stainless steel tanks at cooler temperatures around 55°F to retain delicate aromas and signature compounds. To increase viscosity and complexity, the wine was aged on its lees for two months before blending.

With a vibrant citrus aromas of Meyer lemon and pomelo, Edna Valley Vineyard captures the classic California-style Pinot Grigio in the glass. Notes of white peach and dried apple play with a crunchy, fun acidity while hints of green plum and Granny Smith apple create a delightful, refreshing and easy-to-enjoy wine.
