"The 2023 Space Cadet (85% Syrah, 15% Grenache from Bien Nacido & Larner) is a velvety, silky wine that marries floral Granche aromatics with dark purple Syrah fruit, mocha, vanilla and spice. Chalky tannins and calibrated acids provide an impeccaboy balanced framework, all wrapped up in velvety smooth contours. The 2023 is impossible to resist." (Drink between 2025-2034)" -Vinous, 95VM
One of Santa Barbara County's most storied producers, for more than 2 decades Paul has been crafting some of most lavish and refined wines along the Central Coast. A master at coaxing all of the perfumed aromatics of his Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Rhône productions, his true talent lies in putting those genies back into the bottle on the palate, combining the decadence of the grape on the nose with the quiet power of site in the glass. A master.
