Scar of the Sea was established in 2012 and is owned & operated by Mikey & Gina Giugni. It's fair to say that Mikey & Gina are making some of the best wine in San Luis Obispo County today. Scar of the Sea focuses on working with farmers who are instrumental in farming for the future and making wines with as little intervention as possible. The wines are made with the intention to tell a story of where they come from, the people who farm them, and reflect each vintage under the California sun.
Vinos de los Ranchos is a blend of 3 separate picks from the organically farmed Rancho Ontiveros Vineyard. Silky and smooth, this Burgundian-style Pinot gives notes of wild strawberry, juicy cranberry and earl grey tea leaves.
The 2023 Pinot Noir Vino de los Ranchos opens with a charming, bright nose with tinges of rustic, dusty overtones. The palate is blue-fruited and precise, deceptive in its medium to light-bodied richness. It finishes on a grippy, earthy note that retains pure, vibrant fruit flavors and subtle but persistent tannins.
