Winemakers love rosé. At Coterie, we've always made a little behind the scenes, but 2024 is just the third year for this wine. Because most of the Pinot Noir from Las Nietas Vineyard goes into our vineyard-designate Pinot Noir, we made just a tiny amount of this wine. 2024 is the first vintage offered to non-members, which makes this a rare opportunity. Las Nietas Vineyard is our coolest site for Pinot Noir, high above the Monterey Bay at the southern end of the Santa Cruz Mountains. With just a few hours on the skins, this wine is perfectly pink and absolutely delicious. It is vivacious and juicy, with notes of vibrant berries, fresh flowers, green papaya, and melon.

Roussanne is a challenge to grow and difficult to vinify. At the winery we say Roussanne has everything going against it, except that it tastes really good. It is also beautiful with age. Our friends at Tablas Creek turned us on to the lovely Roussanne at the nearby Glenrose Vineyard within the Adelaida District of Paso Robles. This area is a bit cooler than the rest of Paso Robles, but still the warmest from which we produce. The 2023 vintage spent its entire fermentation and élevage in stainless steel to balance the richness of this wine with some brilliance. It features delicate notes of stone fruit, vanilla cream, and marzipan, layered with traces of herbal tea and citrus zest.

The Pinot Noir at Kirk Williams Ranch is deeply flavorful with rich fruit, complex earthiness, and alluring spice. Kirk Williams Ranch is adjacent to the famed Garys' Vineyard (the land of which Kirk also owns) and just south of the renowned Rosella's Vineyard. Under Kirk's care and guidance, this vineyard has established its own outstanding reputation. We make this Pinot Noir from Pommard 4, 667, and 777 cuttings. The 2019 vintage was fermented with 18% whole clusters. It is an elegant, more delicate rendition than usual, with notes of Brooks cherry, bramble, and violets, complemented by a earthy, ageworthy layer of sweet pipe tobacco.

Most of our wines are vineyard-designate wines, where each accentuates the beauty of a single vineyard. Our reserve cuvée wines are made from these very same vineyards, usually blended at the same time as our vineyard-designate wines but across vineyards. These are wines with their own distinction, at an exceptional price. We made our 2019 SLH Reserve Cuvée Pinot Noir from six blocks across Kirk Williams Ranch and Tondre Grapefield comprised of 667, Pommard 4, 943, and 777 cuttings, among the most respected in the area. It's a layered, gratifying wine full of cherry and baking spice with a lean towards a brighter balance.

There is so much demand for Pinot Noir in the Santa Lucia Highlands that sometimes it's easy to forget how delightful the cool-climate Syrah is here too. Sadly, many growers have grafted over their Syrah to other things. We make our Tondre Grapefield Syrah from a field blend of uncertain heritage. We were excited to discover this small block in 2016, the same vintage when we started our Syrah at Las Madres Vineyard in Carneros to the north. We have made both wines ever since. 2022 yielded a unique Syrah here, surprisingly reflective of Cabernet Sauvignon, with enchanting notes of black currant, cassis, vanilla, cocoa nibs, and earthy, toasted brioche.
