By Vintage
2013 Improv
Our 2013 Improv is a wonderful, eclectic blend of Zinfandel, Syrah, Merlot and Petite Sirah, making this wine truly an improvisation. This vintage begins with a gorgeous purple hue and an enticing nose of dark fruit and vanilla. It excites the palate with layers of red plum, black cherry and a hint of spice. Beautifully balanced with a long, lingering finish, Improv continues to be one of our most exciting blends!
2013 Petite Sirah
For this release of our Petite Sirah, we blended our very own Lock Vineyard Petite Sirah with Petite Sirah we source from the Reaugh’s Sereno Vista Vineyard and the result, extraordinary! This wine begins with black plums, blackberry and caramel with a velvety richness and spice on the mid-palate and a long, lingering finish that just keeps on going!
2013 Syrah
Lock Vineyard
This classically structured Lock Vineyard Syrah begins with rich aromas of dark cherry, coffee and savory notes that continue with hints of plum, currant and vanilla on the palate. The soft tannins and silky smooth finish typical of our Estate Syrah will leave you wishing for more!
2013 El Tempo
In 2013, we had the opportunity to source Tempranillo for the first time. As we tasted this from barrel, we quickly learned that this varietal needed more time so we tucked it away in our cellar and waited patiently and we know you’ll be glad we did! The Tempranillo blended beautifully with the Petite Sirah and Mourvèdre. The rich purple hue and seductive aromas of dark fruit, cedar and cherry cola lure you to a well structured wine with a big, bold finish. The extended barrel aging created a phenomenal blend that we are excited to share with you first!

2013 Zinfandel
Continuing in our tradition of making a food friendly, fruit forward Zinfandel, this vintage exhibits typical traits of a wonderful west side Paso Zin. The ruby color and inviting nose of bright red fruit and hints of oak and vanilla continue on the palate with red currant and cherry notes, soft tannins and an incredibly smooth finish. It’s yummy!
2013 Cabernet Sauvignon
Lock Vineyard
Our 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon continues to highlight the remarkable fruit off our very own Lock Vineyard. Incredibly rich in color, the fruit forward nose leads to flavors of black currants, dark fruit and a hint of espresso. This classically structured Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon is stunningly complex and the decadently smooth finish will leave you craving for more!
2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve
Lock Vineyard
We are ecstatic to release the fourth vintage of our Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve!. The intense color and enticing nose of vanilla, anise, black currant and spice lure you in. These flavors continue on the palate with intense dark fruit and a hint of cocoa. Our Reserve was barrel aged for 30 months creating an elegantly complex wine that is incredibly balanced with luscious flavors and a long, lingering finish. The bold, velvety richness will leave you speechless!
2013 Ensemble
Using our phenomenal Lock Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon as the foundation for our popular Bordeaux blend continues to create an exceedingly elegant and sophisticated wine. The gorgeous color and enticing aromas of vanilla, black currant and brown sugar invite you to explore the harmony of these rich varietals. These flavors continue on the palate with notes of blackberry, cherry and a seductively smooth finish. Very approachable now but will show off its luscious style beautifully as it ages!
2013 Rendition
Each year Rendition is our rendition of the traditional “GSM” Rhone-style blend and the 2013 vintage is a classic Rhone blend from our very own Lock Vineyard that continues to impress! Anchored with our phenomenal Estate Syrah, the addition of Grenache and Mourvèdre bring out the best of these three varietals. The bright crimson color and savory nose entices you with aromas of dark fruit, tobacco and spice. These flavors continue on the palate with hints of dark cherry with a long, lingering finish. Enjoy!
2013 Grenache
We’re thrilled to release the third vintage of our single varietal Grenache. Incredibly full bodied, this vintage begins with a deep ruby red color and enticing aromas of dried cherry, earth and blackberries, while flavors of dark berries and plum linger on the palate with hint of spice on the finish. This wine received a Gold Medal at the San Francisco Chronicle competition prior to release so we’re ecstatic to share this wine with you!
