The UV-SL Vineyard is named after the legendary vineyard manager, Ulises Valdez, and its location on Stoetz Lane. Only six miles from the Pacific Ocean, the cooling maritime influences are always present, yet always balanced by natural richness of fruit. Full-bodied yet tightly-coiled, the 2018 is an exceptional release with an abundance of rich fruit and decadent textural fibre yet superb underlying mineral nuance and cooling tensile acidity.
