The 2022 vintage of The Stand offers brooding aromas of black plum, boysenberry, blackberry jam and toasted oak with notes of violets, leather and mocha. The mouthfeel is dense and seamless, bursting with velvety blue and black fruit flavors laced with cinnamon accents. A juicy, integrated finish lingers with spicy notes of black pepper. The native boldness of the Petite Sirah is rounded out perfectly by the Rhône varieties, creating a seamless blend that keeps you coming back for more.

The 2022 vintage of The Stand is a blend of Petite Sirah (76%) from two favored sites in Paso Robles—Brave Oak and Parvaneh vineyards—as well as Syrah (17%), Mourvèdre (5%) and Viognier (2%) from the cooler coastal climes of Santa Barbara County.

A warm growing season in Paso Robles set the tone for the 2022 reds, with rich flavors and supple tannins. Director of Winemaking Jeremy Leffert fermented the Petite Sirah in stainless steel tanks, while the Rhône varieties were fermented separately in large open-top oak foudres, with the Syrah and Viognier being co-fermented.

The Petite Sirah was aged in French oak barriques, while the Rhône varieties were matured in 500-liter oak puncheons. The separate lots were blended after 10 months, then returned to barrels for an additional three months of integration before bottling. In the final blend, Petite Sirah sets the tone with decadent concentration, while the cool-climate Syrah, Mourvèdre and Viogner add brightness, balance and complexity to the experience.
