They make a brilliant cab, too, as I’m sure you are aware…

Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay 2013

Still young for my tastes but checking in on a go-to producer. Killer with King Crab Salad sandwiches 🥪

This bottle was a bit slow out the gate and needed some air to reveal the magic inside. This bottle was a pick up from Corti Bros when passing through Sacramento via Tahoe.
Finesse, and beautifully prolific white wine structure all the way throughout.

Santa Cruz Mts represent!

Stagecoach Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

This really leans into the darker aspect of Cab. Dark cassis, loads of dark crushed stone, baker’s chocolate, dark iodiney savory notes. Intense in the mouth, but with surprisingly nice acids for its 14.9 frame. Rich, but bone dry. Still tannic, but it’s soft. — 7 months ago

And for all those concerned, will take a vertical blind tasting of Mount Eden Estate Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon over any time frame vs any Napa or Sonoma concern with the possible exception of Diamond Creek and Dunn. This winery is criminally underrated. Rarely explosive. Consistent, subtle and sneaky. Cabs are usually 75%+ Cab Sauv with Merlot, PV, CF blended in. Structured. Not flashy but uncommon balance and a definite nod/homage to the days of yore.

For all that said about the chard and cabernet, can take or leave the pinot. Always nice. Some years have better depth. It’s an aging pinot…like a decade plus before things start to sort out and assemble.

@Somm David T They’ve always lagged the average price point. Second label Domaine Eden (old Cinnabar property) makes some pretty solid stuff most vintages.

Hill of Grace Vineyard Shiraz 2018

Fantastic cult wine that I’ve had the pleasure of trying a couple of times now. Lives up to the hype. Amazing in all aspects. Big but super pretty and just keeps rewarding you with greatness every time you return to you glass. — 10 months ago

Still a great Merlot but lots of dark fruit and feels alcoholic/hangover inducing. Their wines recently need to sit much longer than in the past. — 5 years ago
