Founded in 1990, Stolpman Vineyards sits on rolling Limestone hills in the Ballard Canyon AVA in the heart of Santa Barbara County wine country. Tom Stolpman focused on Syrah and other Rhone varietals since the beginning, as well as an Italian passion project centered around Sangiovese. Tom’s son Pete took over the operation in 2009 and started the SO FRESH brand using whole-grape (un-crushed) “carbonic fermentation” to make lighter bodied, chill-able red wines. Stolpman Vineyards The rich, rust-colored white grape Roussanne thrives in the long, cool Pacific-influenced climate while Sangiovese February 2021 produces bright, dynamic flavors from the vineyard’s Limestone-driven concentration. Stolpman Syrah delivers beautiful fruit purity married with savory olive notes. Stolpman Vineyards only employs a year-round vineyard crew, no migrant labor, and the employees farm their own “Cuadra” or vineyard block. 10% of Stolpman’s production goes into La Cuadrilla Red, and Stolpman gives the profits of this wine back to the workers in the form of a year-end bonus. 2019 2020 Love 2018 La Crunchy You Bunches Cuadrilla Roaste for customers of ANDOVER | ROSEVILLE | CHANHASSEN | ST.
