Kessler-Haak Pinot Noir tends to be intense, but this 2023 bottling takes it to another level. This is a wine that speaks to low yields. Much as 2023 was a picture-perfect vintage, at Kessler-Haak the cool, foggy weather led to some mid-season disease issues. Ultimately a lot of fruit was culled to save the good stuff, so the vines put their energy into a tiny crop (about a two-thirds a ton per acre). Fans of dark, decadent Pinot Noir will adore this wine.

We’re excited to share four outstanding wines from the terrific 2023 vintage. 2023 was a truly exceptional harvest, late as it was; it was the first time we have ever picked Pinot Noir in October!In a vintage like this one, we had no option but to continuously sample the grapes and watch their extremely slow progression building sugars very carefully. But as that fruit just continued to hang, the sugar may have been slow to develop, but the color and character was bountiful.While vintage conditions are somewhat uniform, each vineyard’s, and even within a particular vineyard, grapes can vary wildly in how they combine weather with the unique aspects of their terroir.We find so much joy and intrigue in tasting the similarities and differences between each of these singular expressions of Pinot.

Classy and ethereal Viognier can be an elusive thing, but that’s exactly what this 2024 Brick Barn Viognier is all about. In many parts of California, Viognier as a varietal wine can be truly too generous—perfumed like five pumps of Love Spell, textured like oil—yet stingy with acidity, of all things.Just east of the Sta. Rita Hills and centered in the east-west wind corridor, Brick Barn is a cool spot to grow Viognier. That gives it an uncommon fresh edge, with acidity levels that mirror Chardonnay in our region. The gentle ripening here also gives the wine an airy and enticing spread of aromas, pulling you in rather than pushing you back. Still, it’s vividly Viognier in a way that any aspiring Somm would love to find on their blind tasting exam.

Even just months after bottling, this 2023 Chardon

Even just months after bottling, this 2023 Chardonnay from Rancho Ontiveros already impresses with complexity and earthy poise. That’s partly due to a very cool vintage, but also a result of the way this wine challenged us in the cellar. Toward the end of fermentation, the native yeasts that were fermenting the wine bogged down, and it took an extra 7 months of barrel aging to finish fermenting the wine dry. That extra time in barrel shaped the wine in a way that we’re totally enamored with.The grapes we get from Rancho Ontiveros are the Wente clone of Chardonnay, a low-yielding clone that tends to be tropical and rich. The nice thing with extended aging is that fruitiness recedes and reveals a gorgeous sense of earthiness, creaminess, and minerality. So even in its youth, the wine already carries the complexity of an aged wine while staying fresh and full of verve.
