2023 **New** Brecon Albarino (Edna Valley)

We have gotten our mitts on this fruit only once before (2018) and it was a signature year for our Albarino program. This time we got enough to build a new Edna Valley Albarino Program around it (as opposed to our traditional SLO Coast offering). It's delightfully clean emphasizing the crisp fruit and excellent refreshing acidity. This belies the complexity of the components. Four distinctly different Albariños blended seamlessly into another Brecon Classic.

2022 Brecon Forty-Two (Red Rhone Blend)

When the sequel to a movie you adore finally comes out, it reaffirms why you love the original. The cast (vines) sure are a little older, smoother, and more complex. There are a few new characters and clever plot twists (new vineyards and varieties). But that overall feel of overlying tension and edgy spiciness that previously had you smitten are still much in evidence. Of course with this sequel you actually get to pick the exotic location, the romantic lighting, and how long it lasts yourself. Better purchase a few, you know you are going to repeatedly binge-watch them all (vertical tastings). 
 
**Inspired by the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy of four books.

2022 Brecon Zinfandel Paso Robles

Brecon has always crafted quintessentially food-friendly Zinfandels. We do that by solely using hilltop Zins from the local “hood” which give wonderfully concentrated, balanced fruit with well-integrated acids. Lively and manifestly brighter, rather than jammy, with an intriguing spice layer, soft tannins, and underlying mixed white/black pepper notes. All while the interplay of fine American and French oaks provide a subtle, refined, seamless framework.

2021 Brecon Reserve Cabernet Franc

Shh, better be quiet around them… these old vines sure do hold 50 years of secrets. To tell you the truth, we even thought about not writing a tasting note, knowing it will sell out with a snap of the fingers. We even considered (for a fleeting moment) to let Chat GPT write this note for us. But as a whimsical wordsmith, I figured I shall not let technology take over this winery just yet! Since we have old vines, we might as well keep it old fashioned for a while longer. These smooth old rascals grow regally on its own Calcareous hilltop, creating lovely cherry-red, subtly fragrant, soft quality.

2022 Brecon Reserve Mourvedre

Think you are stepping out of your comfort zone with Mourvèdre? Think again! Mourvèdre has been the backbone of many collectible Rhône wines for centuries. It's French, so it's rarely on the label! However, in Paso, it shines with dark enigmatic fruit, rich mouthfeel, and beguiling color. Brecon wines are all experiential so we encourage you to imbibe out of said zone. Hint: try with feet dipped in an icy mountain stream, baby fish nibbling at your toes. It sends shivers down your spine! Complemented by the warmth of the Mourvèdre, the earthy aromatics seem right at home near the forest floor. Guppies in a fish tank will never be the same!
