Grown in the newly designated San Luis Obispo (SLO) Coast AVA, this Pinot Noir reflects the coastal beauty of the region.

The cool climate, marked by coastal breezes and abundant sunlight, results in a complex flavor profile.

True Myth wines from this vintage embody the essence of a dedicated journey, showcasing remarkable depth and allure.

The Art of Making Our Wine

Throughout the millenia for which winemaking has existed, the humble grape has always been the star of the show. Its journey from a simple fruit to a complex, beautiful wine, is tastfully shepherded by the winemaker, asserting themself into the natural process while being mindful not to overly interfere with the wonder that is fermentation.
