| Description: | Anybody who has been in our store asking for California Chardonnay and Pinot Noir recommendations has surely heard us mention the wines of Peake Ranch. This producer has previously been on our domestic "Top Wine" list in both 2018 and 2021, and judging by these new releases, there's a good chance that they will be on the list this year!. Peake Ranch is a boutique, family-run winery owned by John and Gillian Wagner. 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. They purchased Peake Ranch with a vision of building a winery and a house on the property, and producing extraordinary wines. They also bring a humbleness and sense of humility, which is honestly quite refreshing. Jeb Dunnuck 94 Points - "Winemaker Wynne Sargeant had some big shoes to fill taking over the reins from Paul Lato, but she has unquestionably risen to the occasion and today is making some of the finest wines in the Central Coast. The estate is in the warmer, eastern side of the Sta. Rita Hills, and they produce a number of single vineyard Chardonnays as well as Pinot Noirs (from the Sta. Rita Hills and Santa Maria Valley) and brilliant RhĂ´ne blends. The wines are superb across the board.". "Light gold-hued, the 2021 Chardonnay Santa Barbara County offers a classic Chardonnay nose of ripe orchard fruits, lemon peel, and brioche, with plenty of background Sta. Rita Hills chalky minerality and obvious salinity. This medium-bodied, balanced, beautifully textured Chardonnay is well worth seeking out and represents a terrific value." |
