Fall Release Uncorked—Discover Serial’s Newest Collection
This past October, we introduced the highly anticipated Serial Wines Fall Release—a remarkable collection that celebrates the depth and diversity of Paso Robles terroirs and beyond. This release features five new wines, including two stunning inaugural vintages that speak to our relentless pursuit of expressive, terroir-driven wines.
Leading the collection is the 2023 Serial Willow Creek District Viognier, crafted from vines rooted in the calcareous soils of Paso’s westside. This Viognier is a refined balance of ripe peach, crisp Fuji apple, and a touch of chamomile. The bright acidity and vibrant tropical notes culminate in a focused, graceful finish that reveals the finesse of Willow Creek’s maritime-influenced climate.
Next, we showcase the 2023 Serial Estrella District Albariño—a true Iberian classic, shaped by the warm floodplains of the Estrella District. This Albariño is pale straw-gold in the glass, offering fragrant notes of green apple, lychee, and delicate white flowers. Crisp flavors of stone fruit, lemon meringue, and honeydew highlight its focused acidity and clean, mineral-driven finish.
The release continues with the 2021 Serial Bien Nacido Vineyard Syrah, an inaugural vintage from the storied Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Maria Valley. This wine, with its pale ruby-garnet hue, reveals old-world elegance and restraint. Aromas of black raspberry, rhubarb, and savory black olive evolve into layers of black cherry and Italian strawberry on the palate, framed by refined tannins and a vibrant acidity that hints at beautiful aging potential.
Our 2021 Serial Defiance Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles’ Creston District follows—a vineyard-designate wine of bold intensity and structure. Medium ruby in the glass, this Cabernet opens with rich aromas of black plum, rosemary, and fresh dates. Flavors of Crème de cassis and blackberry compote unfold with hints of suede leather, balanced by lively acidity and structured tannins. This wine’s depth and complexity promise longevity and elegance in every bottle.
The collection culminates in the 2021 Serial Willow Creek District Cabernet Sauvignon—a powerful inaugural release that captures the signature richness of the Willow Creek District. Deep ruby in color, this Cabernet unveils layers of red and black berries, cigar box, and crushed stone on the nose. The palate reveals lush notes of boysenberry, bramble, and baking spices, underpinned by supple tannins and an evolving, commanding finish that reflects the intensity and grace of Willow Creek’s unique terroir.
