Scratch
Scratch produces wines from California's Central Coast, a region celebrated for its cool maritime influence and diverse terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon—grapes that thrive in the region's variable microclimates. The Boekenoogen Vineyard Pinot Noir stands as the flagship expression, joined by a core Cabernet Sauvignon and a broader Pinot Noir offering. These wines have been assessed by major critics including Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Decanter, reflecting the winery's engagement with serious wine evaluation. The Central Coast's proximity to the Pacific Ocean moderates growing conditions, yielding wines with the structure and complexity that define the region's best work.
