"Shows a beautiful balance of all its parts. The fruit is forwardly ripe, showing cherries, blackberries and rich dark chocolate. But the tannins are firm and supportive, and there’s gorgeous acidity that makes the tastebuds sing. This is a really delicious young Syrah for the most upscale foods, and it’s at its best now." 92 Points - Wine Enthusiast

VINEYARDS:
"Trenton Station Vineyard finds its home on a small hillside parcel along the gently rolling hills of the Russian River Valley. Known endearingly as the Pasta Boys lot, this vineyard was planted in 1999 in Goldridge fine sandy soil. Running north/south along the hillside, the vineyard enjoys northern sun exposure and the cooling summer coastal fog."

"Each of our carefully selected single-vineyards have a distinctive location and a personality all their own. The combination of each vineyard's site, soil composition, growing season, elevation attributes, and clone and rootstock selections, set them apart. Individually, each vineyard's character guides the Lost Canyon wine style of elegantly lush and vibrant fruit flavors with a careful balance of natural acids and delicate tannins." -Winery

ESTATE:
"Production of exceptional wine is never a certainty. Even if the fruit comes from such preeminent growing appellations as the Russian River Valley, Sonoma Coast, and Los Carneros, careful focus and premier viticulture practices must unite with a deep-rooted passion to create the most individually stunning wines available. Lost Canyon Wines are a testament to this truly unique point of view."

"The dream of Lost Canyon Winery materialized out of a passionate desire to harness the enchantingly distinctive characteristics articulated by the famed terroir of the cooler Northern California appellations. Our aim is to craft wines that exemplify each of the distinct and fundamental attributes of this exceptional region by discovering the most evocative single-vineyards and nurturing their exceptional fruit into authentically unforgettable wine."

"To accomplish this carefully designed ambition, we’ve chosen to allow each of the remarkable components derived from the finest single-vineyards emerge in their own right. For this reason, we opt to go without the heavy-handed and often muddying effects of blending multiple vineyards, which can twist and wrench the gracefulness out of the finished product. Our light and deliberate touch results in an emboldened display of terroir and a true manifestation of the delicate nuances inherent in each vineyard." -Winery
