"Lumiere"

2013 Santa Ynez Valley Grenache

The Paul Lato "Lumiere" is a captivating Grenache from the Santa Ynez Valley, showcasing a deep, ruby red color that captures the eye. This vintage exudes a full-bodied character, with a vibrant acidity that adds a refreshing lift to its rich profile. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing luscious notes of ripe strawberries and black cherries, complemented by subtle hints of spice and earthiness. The tannins are notably firm yet well-integrated, providing structure without overwhelming the palate. A dry wine, it offers a beautifully balanced finish that invites another sip, making it an exceptional choice for any occasion.

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
