Santa Lucia Highlands

Apex provided the first of our Pinot Noir grapes to be harvested in 2018. The site sits above the fog line and thrives in the extra sun exposure, producing a luscious fruit profile with acidity on the back of the palate. The fruit is fermented in stainless steel, open top tanks. We ferment one of the lots at a warmer temperature to enhance the silky texture for which the Santa Lucia Highlands region is famous for producing. The wine was aged in a combination of new and neutral oak barrels for 9 months.
The Pinot Noir grapes for this wine earlier than others to achieve a style of wine that reflects that Pacific wind that sweeps daily through the Edna Valley. The goal is to produce a wine that is graceful yet expansive on the palate. We apply a cool fermentation and gentle extraction rate to preserve the red fruit notes and showcase the acidity.
With a late bud break and a dry, mild summer, the 2020 growing season looked a lot like 2019 and on par as a cooler vintage. Fortunately, flavors developed faster than in 2019, which allowed us to start picking in late August and through September to capitalize on the excellent sugar and acid balance in the grapes.
A magnum 1.5L of Tolosa's signature Pinot Noir is perfect for any celebration. Pinot Noir can have so many unique and beautiful aromas. However, to bring out those aromas, the grape needs the right place to grow and strict attention to detail in winemaking. When your tasting notes for this wine include descriptors like candied bacon, black forest cake, red licorice, evergreen, and yellow beans, you have discovered that special place and the right winemaker. In addition to those lovely nuances, this wine possesses an ideal combination of concentrated flavors and bright acidity, which is a hallmark of the long, cool 2019 vintage.

Edna Ranch - Edna Valley
The Poletti portion of our Edna Ranch vineyard sits in the direct path of the coastal sea breeze and at a slightly higher altitude, receiving a moderating influence of cooler temperatures which helps the grapes maintain their natural acidity and fruit aromas. The fruit from the Poletti tract is the highlight of this Edna Ranch Chardonnay.
