Subterra 2022 Pinot Noir, Los Olivos District, Santa Barbara County Login WS 88 In Stock

Subterra is led by fourth generation Sonoma vintner August Sebastiani. August navigates the subterranean world of the wine industry to unveil rare and limited offerings from highly sought after vineyards.

Sebastiani History: Sebastiani’s storied journey in Sonoma winemaking commenced over a century ago when Samuele Sebastiani emigrated from Tuscany, Italy, in 1895. Nine years later, he founded Sebastiani Winery. A stonemason by trade, Samuele mined the Sonoma hills for cobblestones used to pave the streets of San Francisco. Through his tireless work and prudent savings, he purchased land in Sonoma County, where he began producing wine for the local community and San Francisco’s restaurants. The winery was the only one in Sonoma County to continue operations through Prohibition, making a small amount of sacramental and medicinal wines. During Prohibition and the Depression, Samuele Sebastiani undertook major projects to provide jobs for his neighbors. To keep the winery running, he also started canning peaches, pears, and nectarines. Bill Foley purchased Sebastiani in 2008.

    Offering soft-edged, gently mulled red and black cherry fruit, this direct red is backed by hints of black tea and blood orange zest on the finish.
