This vintage comes from Grimm's Bluff Vineyard in the Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara AVA and we could not be more proud of this wine. Aromatics of black cherry, cigar box, and anise are complemented by notes of sweet tobacco, cacao, and black maraschino cherries. The complex fruit flavors on the palate blend into opulent velvety tannins for a dynamic, lengthy finish. This defines the purely balanced, fresh intensity culminating in elegance and grace. Perfect for red meats, chilly nights by the fire, or dare we say your Christmas filet mignon or prime rib.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiazza Family Wines knows that great wines are not made in the cellar but in the vineyard. They intentionally want to showcase the unique qualities of place with the wines. Each wine is handcrafted to represent the soil, climate, and varietal for each vintage. There is no substitution for hard work and attention to detail. With a focus on the vineyard, Piazza Family Wines has worked with esteemed vineyard manager, Ruben Solorzano, to follow organic farming practices to ensure that each harvest yields the best possible grapes and gives a true representation of their terroir. Old-world styles blend with new-world techniques when it comes to Piazza Family Wines.\u003cbr\u003eIn the winery, Winemaker Gretchen Voelcker focuses on minimal intervention and allows for the grapes to speak for themselves. She listens to the harvest and picks the grapes at optimal times for balance and complexity. She guides the winemaking process using no commercial yeasts and the smallest amount of sulfur needed. The wines she crafts are a true sense of place, varietal definition, and inherently exude balance and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded by Gretchen Voelcker, Luna Hart Wines is a boutique wine company specializing in small batch, handcrafted wines in the Santa Ynez Valley.

It was not until years later that the initial spark would turn into the flame that is now Luna Hart Wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLuna Hart started with a work trade with one of Gretchen's mentors, Ryan Roark, making Sauvignon Blanc under the label of Moon Unit Wines.
