The 38th Vintage
A private wine country weekend in Solvang
August 28 - 30, 2026
The 38th Vintage™ is a small, celebration driven wine project founded in 1988, inspired by late summer evenings in Santa Ynez and the vineyards around Solvang. Crafted in the spirit of a birthday bottle you never want to end, the wines favor elegance, texture, and food friendly freshness over weight or excess.
At the core of the collection is a red blend in the Rule of Thirds tradition, driven by bright red berries, lifted floral notes, and a vibrant line of acidity that keeps each sip focused and energetic. A limited Syrah release brings nuance and depth, layering dark fruit with savory spice, floral tones, and fine grained tannins that carry through a long, structured finish. Completing the lineup is a vivid Rosé, marked by stone fruit, citrus, and gentle florals, with lively acidity and a smooth, refreshing texture that feels built for golden hour.
Together, these wines read as a weekend in wine country captured in bottle, equal parts relaxed and refined, made to be opened with friends, shared across a table, and remembered long after the last glass.
