Description: | Want to know what our buyer's favorite wine is to pair with tri-tip? It's this wine right here! Peake Ranch is a boutique, family-run winery owned by John and Gillian Wagner, and like all of us who have visited Santa Barbara County, the couple fell in love with the beautiful countryside and the friendliness of the people. In addition to the property which houses the winery, they also get fruit from their John Sebastiano Vineyard on the opposite side of the Sta. Rita Hills appellation. John Sebastiano Vineyard is located on the eastern edge of the Sta. Rita Hills Ava. The raised elevation of this vineyard exposes this spot to an extra dose of the winds that the appellation is famous for. Cool nights and constant wind make for grapes that show great concentration and lend themselves to the magic of their gifted winemaker Wynne Solomon, yielding extraordinary wines. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 96+ Points - "Made with about 25% whole clusters and matured in 27% new French oak, the 2019 Syrah John Sebastiano Vineyard has a medium ruby-purple color and gregarious aromas of blackberry jam, licorice, Earl Grey tea leaves and iron. The medium-bodied palate exhibits tremendous fruit intensity and amaro-like layers for its finely grained, juicy frame, and it finishes with notable length and purity.". Jeb Dunnuck 95 Points - "The 2019 Syrah John Sebastiano Vineyard is slightly darker and more Jamet-like aromatically, with some meaty, peppery, wild notes as well as terrific darker fruits. It's nicely textured on the palate, with plenty of sweet fruit, medium to full-bodied richness, and sweet, polished tannins. I like the balance and overall package of the Peake Ranch more, but this is still brilliant." |
