(8/30/2016) "Coming in at the value end of the spectrum and a straight up Terrific effort, the 2014 Chardonnay Santa Barbara County (aged 16 months in 30% new French oak) has tons of crisp peach, salty sea breeze, white flowers and citrus. It is medium-bodied and lively, with vibrant acidity and a clean, pure, elegant profile that just begs you to pour another glass. Buy a case and drink it over the coming 4-6 years."

Sans Liege "The Offering" Santa Barbara County Red 2017
92
Wine Spectator
(4/30/2020) "A brooding core is wrapped in a polished, zesty texture, offering blackberry, cured meat and smoky cracked pepper flavors as this builds toward fine-grained tannins. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre and Viognier. Drink now through 2030."

Whitcraft/Liquid Swords "Farmer" Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir 2018
91
Our Score
(5/2020) A tremendous opportunity for those "in the know". Our local distributor was selling this wine as a private label to a high-level Fulton Market restaurant until a certain pandemic arose. The not well-kept secret is this $25 Pinot Noir is crafted by nouveau-cult, 2nd generation winemaker Drake Whitcraft, and what is inside the bottle very-closely resembles his base $40 winery offering. Whitcraft is mostly a two-man operation, crafted nearly without the use of any electricity in their less than swank urban winery in Santa Barbara. Native yeasts, hand sorted, hand-bottled and labeled. The wines are unfined and unfiltered. But the wines are clean and incredibly precise at the same time. Between the vibrant label and the hand-enclosed DIAM30 model cork that is the sort of thing you find in $100 Grand Cru Classe Bordeaux, no expense is spared. Sourced predominantly from Pence Ranch in Sta Rita Hills, this feels like a very special bottling. This is a Pinot purists kind of wine, pouring a color nearer that of Tavel Rose. However, the density of floral aromatics, crunchy red fruit and pulsating energy on the palate will have you re-thinking what "intensity" really means in wine. Featherweight but fiercely delicious, overachieve today!

Our Score
(5/2019) Angela Osborne is a Grenache Genius! The 2019 release of this elegant, single-vineyard, biodynamically-farmed rose is superb as usual. Classic and delicious, this fresh rose unfolds with flavors of strawberry, spice, melon, white flowers and a long satisfying finish. So versatile, you can enjoy this with fresh Caprese salad, carnitas or grilled chicken and veggies. This rose can't miss!

(10/31/2019) "Deeply colored, the 2017 Pinot Noir tastes like a mini version of The Hilt Estate Pinot Noir. Ripe black raspberries, cherries, toasted spice, and scorched earth nuances all flow to a medium-bodied, concentrated Pinot Noir that drinks well today, yet has the depth and tannins to evolve for at least 5-6 years. Maturity: 2019 - 2025"

Siduri Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir 2017

Wine Enthusiast
(5/1/2019) "Winemaker Adam Lee's first crack at a Santa Barbara County blend is a hit, and he plays in the lighter end of the Pinot Noir spectrum as well. Aromas of crushed slate, red cherry and rose petals lead into a bouncy palate that's tart in flavors of pomegranate and raspberry."

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(9/2019) "From a site in Los Alamos, the 2018 Chardonnay Bar M is perfumed, lifted and wonderfully gracious in feel. Citrus and floral notes abound in a very pretty, expressive Chardonnay that shows the aromatic style that is so common here. White flowers, mint and saline overtones add closing layers to this pretty and inviting Chardonnay from Greg Brewer's Diatom label."

Land of Saints Santa Barbara County Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Our Score
(3/2019) Bright, refreshing and superbly well balanced, the mouthwateringly good Land of Saints Sauvignon Blanc is simply a pleasure to drink. From the first sip, this bottling from Angela Osborne will put a big smile on your face. Angela is famous as the founder/winemaker of A Tribute to Grace wines. This is the first Sauvignon Blanc we have bought from her, and it is a real beauty. Look for enticingly delicious flavors of ripe apple and pear along with notes of freshly squeezed citrus and a hint of crunchy bell pepper. Very good stuff here!

Nielson Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir 2017
90
Wine Advocate
(9/12/2019) "The 2017 Pinot Noir Santa Barbara County was sourced from multiple sites across the county and aged in 5% new French oak. Pale to medium ruby, it has a perfumed nose of violet, tangerine peel, Earl Grey tea leaves, crushed blackberries, cranberries, rhubarb, woodsmoke and pipe tobacco with an earthy undercurrent. The palate is light to medium-bodied with a good core of earthy fruit framed by grainy tannins and great freshness, finishing earthy. This is a great value, and with 31,000 cases produced, this should be easy to find."
