This wine smells like a bowl of dried berries or one of those really great Maraschino cherries in syrup.  Made with the grape variety of Italian Chianti, but this one was grown and expertly crafted in sunny California (Santa Ynez Valley to be exact) by one of our favorite winemaking couples, and has all the charm of the famously food-friendly grape. The craziest thing happens when this is paired with tomatoes - they soften the wine like some sort of secret key. Have this with pizza, pasta, lasagna...heck, have it for brunch with Shakshuka!

Delicious With

Pizza, pasta, lasagna, Shakshuka... everything and anything with tomatoes! The perfect match for Caprese salad or sandwich. Try with umami flavors like grilled mushrooms or marinated eggplant.

Their Cred

Outward Wines is the brainchild of Ryan Pace and Natalie Siddique, a pair whose partnership began not in the vineyard, but on a rock face-they met through rock climbing and quickly discovered a shared passion for adventure and wine. Natalie, is a rock climbing celebrity and former business owner, while Ryan comes from a winemaking family and studied at Cal Poly before cutting his teeth at Byron winery. Outward started with just two barrels of Syrah from Ryan’s father’s backyard vineyard, but now it’s their full-time pursuit, producing about 2,500 cases a year from single-vineyard, organically farmed sites along California’s Central Coast. They farm some of their own vines and source others, always with a focus on low-intervention, wild-yeast fermentations and no fining or filtration. Their Grover Beach winery is also a gathering spot for vinyl and wine parties, reflecting their love of music, community, and good times.
Both winemaking teams are united by a sense of curiosity, a commitment to organic farming, and a love for the unconventional-making wines that are as expressive and adventurous as their own journeys.
