Lane Tanner
Lane Tanner sources fruit from premier Central Coast vineyards to craft wines of precision and depth. The winery's portfolio centers on Pinot Noir and Syrah—varieties that thrive in the region's cool maritime climate. The JK Vineyards Syrah, rated 94 by prestige critics including Wine Advocate and Wine Spectator, demonstrates the richness achievable from low-yield fruit. Pinot Noir forms the backbone of the range: the Bien Nacido Vineyard bottling (89.8 rating) and Julia's Vineyard expression (88.7 rating) both reflect the elegance and structural complexity the Central Coast is known for. Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Falstaff have all assessed the winery's output. The focus on single-vineyard designates underscores a commitment to terroir expression over volume.
