Choice lots of Malbec, Syrah, Petite Sirah, and Cabernet Franc were blended into Hidden Asset -- a complex, rich, silky and elegant wine.  Aromas and flavors include raspberry and pomegranate with a hint of spice. The wine is lush and jammy, with velvety chocolate tannins and a lingering finish.

Wine Enthusiast (91 Points):
“This proprietary blend of Malbec, Merlot, Syrah, Petite Sirah and Cabernet Franc is cohesively integrated on the nose, offering black cherry, strawberry and baking spice aromas. Firm tannins on the palate present a hit of cracked pepper, dense berry and spice cake flavors on the palate, with anise coming through on the finish.”

Louis Lucas and Royce Lewellen were friends before they were ever business partners. One of their common interests was their love of Santa Barbara County. Louis had been a successful grape grower for many years, and had the reputation to match, while Royce was a judge and dreamer who imagined what Santa Barbara could be as a wine region. They banded together to create Lucas & Lewellen Wines. Today, Michael Lewellen, Royce’s son, is the managing partner, making Lucas & Lewellen a second-generation family-owned winery. The Lucas & Lewellen vineyards have become legendary for lovers of premium wines from Santa Barbara County since 1975.

Santa Barbara’s topography is unlike any other wine region. The east-west orientation of the mountain range forms a valley opening directly to the Pacific Ocean. That cool ocean breeze is a hallmark of the Santa Barbara climate, and one that Louis and Royce wanted to highlight in their wines. They acquired the three vineyards that have myriad microclimates, from cool Santa Maria Valley to moderate Los Alamos Valley, known for fresh and vibrant Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, to warmer Santa Ynez Valley, which produces stellar Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot and Cabernet Fran
