estate grapes to formulate more
interesting flavors and wines.
“Drew’s style of winemaking
is the perfect marriage with our
tasting room style,” Jake said. “He’s
unassuming, full of knowledge, and
has a gentle hand when it comes to
making wine. Our wines are bal-
anced and approachable, just like
Drew’s personality. He’s easygoing,
yet super technical, and loves to
experiment.”
Peachy Canyon wines change
depending on the harvest. The
last several vintages produced an
even more balanced, food-friend-
ly, and approachable selection,
according to Jake. Reflecting the
longstanding commitment to
quality, their wines have garnered
awards and honors such as Win-
ery of the Year; double golds from
the Central Coast Wine Competi-
tion, Vinous, and Wine Enthu-
siast; listing in Wine Spectator’s
Top 100 Wines in the World, and
more.
Discover crowd-pleasing
wines at Peachy Canyon
One of the most requested
wines is Peachy Canyon Especial
Zinfandel, a wine the family has
been making since 1989. With
scents of berry brambles and bak-
ing spices on the nose, and supple
flavors of berry cobbler and
toffee, it’s a crowd pleaser. Be sure
to try the Concrete Blanc, a crisp
white Rhône blend of grenache
blanc, viognier, roussanne, and
picpoul blanc.
