Award-Winning 2021 Syrah from La Lomita Islay Hill Vineyard WE94 Rated

Product Description:

Uncover California’s hidden gem with La Lomita Wines’ exclusive Edna Valley Syrah—a rare bottling crafted by one-of-a-kind volcanic soil grapes grown on their secluded Islay Hill estate in Central Coast California. This small-batch wine embodies the essence of place-driven winemaking through its bold flavors shaped by cool coastal winds meeting mineral-rich terrain rarely found elsewhere in Napa or Sonoma regions.

La Lomita is a family-owned boutique winery producing fewer than 200 cases annually, ensuring each bottle reflects meticulous attention to detail rather than mass-market appeal. Their Islay Hill Vineyard Syrah combines savory Old World elegance with vibrant coastal freshness—think layers of ripe blackberry and black cherry complemented by dark chocolate undertones and peppery spice complexity on the palate. Aromas dance between damp bay leaf earthiness, forest floor depth, thyme herbaceousness, and eucalyptus freshness—a sensory journey rooted in volcanic terroir unlike any other Central Coast red blend available today.

Winemaker Mikey Giugni leads this project with accolades including Wine Advocate’s “Top Discoveries” list (’19) and Wine Enthusiast’s “40 Under 40 Tastemakers,” proving his mastery over crafting wines that highlight Edna Valley’s unique identity while balancing bold tannins with bright acidity for long aging potential or immediate enjoyment paired with hearty dishes like grilled meats or rich stews.

At just $16.99, this critically acclaimed bottle offers exceptional value compared to its $48 retail price, making it an ideal choice for collectors seeking exclusive West Coast wines or enthusiasts exploring Edna Valley Syrah beyond mainstream options. With only limited quantities available outside their tasting room—and no discounts applied here—this is your chance to experience a rare treasure before it disappears again into obscurity!

Rated 94 points by Wine Enthusiast for its layered complexity blending roasted fruit intensity with nuanced herbal aromatics deep into its finish—this is more than wine; it’s a testament to Edna Valley’s underappreciated potential bottled exclusively for discerning palates seeking authenticity over mass production.*
