Located on the eastern end of the Sta. Rita Hills AVA on Santa Rosa Road, Peake Ranch is a 105-acre parcel with 50 acres Pinot noir, Chardonnay, Syrah, and Grenache. The dynamic terrain requires the vines to be planted in a diverse array of aspects and slopes to maximize the site’s character.

Santa Rita Hills, a small AVA nestled within Santa Barbara County is home to some of California’s bestloved Pinot Noirs. The fruit focused core, depth and complexity is attributed to the morning fog, sunny days and cooling coastal breezes. The hillsides are covered with white chalky soils that allow for drainage, but also encourage a hint of minerality in the flavor and texture.

A very versatile wine, this Cornerstone Cellars Pinot Noir pairs very favorably with all the usual delicious holiday offerings or anything across the street from the Yount Room at Bistro Jeanty.

92 points, Decanter

From the Peake Ranch Vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills AVA, this wine offers super-ripe red berry fruit, brown baking spices, elegant cedarwood, and hints of cherry-vanilla on the medium-bodied finish. Juicy, crunchy acidity keeps the wine lively throughout.
