So far this year, we’ve won GOLD, five times over!
2013 Meritage wins a double header! Gold at the SF Chronicle Wine Competition and 93 pts from World Wine Championships. It's a pleasant change to gain recognition before it sells out. You can still grab some of this tasty beauty.
2013 Reserve Cabernet, 91 pts - World Wine Championships A very fruity, smooth and creamy cabernet that is sure to please!
2013 “Forty Two” scores a 92 in February issue of Wine Enthusiast. Sorry… it’s sold out.
2014 Viognier-Grenache Blanc scored 91 pts in the January issue of Wine Enthusiast. Just wanted to let you know this award winner is sold out too. Lucky you, if you have a few bottles tucked away, might want to save for a special occasion.

Brecon's "42" gets a "92" from Wine Enthusiast!
February issue of Wine Enthusiast Magazine gave our "42" a score of 92 and this great review - "Inspired by “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,” this blend of 49% Syrah, 46% Mourvèdre and 5% Petite Sirah shows smoky blackberry, condensed violet and bacon fat on the nose. A sip unleashes mouth coating flavors, from rich blackberry to tart plum skins, with lots of smoked plum and a touch of asphalt as well."

Viognier-Grenache Blanc scores 91 points
Looks like 2016 is off to a great start at Brecon! January issue of Wine Enthusiast Magazine gave our 2014 Viognier-Grenache Blanc 91 points and had this to say about it, "Clean, crisp and stony aromas of lime zest, nectarine, peach blossom and chalk show on this brisk blend. There’s lots of zing on the palate, with flavors of tangerine, lime and an array of citrus." Happy New Year!

Brecon Estate Winery Receives 32+ Gold/Double Gold/ Platinum Reviews in 17 Months
Brecon Estate Winery’s 2014 Albarino scored two 96 point reviews in two days from two prestigious Wine Publications
Brecon Estate continues to receive outstanding, almost unheard of accolades for the Paso Robles Wine Region
July 28, 2015 - Paso Robles, CA - Last Thursday, Doug Wilder from the purely domestic wine report, a prestigious Napa based subscription only wine review publication, gave the Brecon Estate 2014 Albarino a 96 pts and a day later the World Wine Championships scored it at 96 points, a humbling Platinum nod! “The Brecon team is just awestruck as this is such a rarity for a white wine, especially the lesser known Albarino from a Paso Robles based winery,” said Damian Grindley, Owner/Winemaker.
These latest acknowledgements top a stellar rise for Brecon Estate, which opened its Vineyard Drive tasting room to much anticipation a mere 17 months ago and has since amassed over 32 Golds/Double Golds and a handful of Platinum medals. Since day one, Brecon has been at the forefront of elucidating the potential quality in this enigmatic Spanish grape varietal in SLO county. A vision that truly has come to fruition in their 2014 Brecon Estate Albarino.
