The 2019 vintage marks the third single vineyard bottling of Breakneck Creek. It has become known and loved for the salinity and freshness that one finds along the seashore. Is it too early to call this bottling "iconic"? There are certain vineyards that are unmistakable in the bottle, vintage after vintage. The drama of the site is clearly magnified in the glass with bursting aromatics of fresh peaches sprinkled with sea salt. The wines from this site are always precise and refined.
