As we approach the end of 2024, I’m filled with gratitude for the journey we’ve shared, and I want to take a moment to thank you for being part of it. Our cellar is steadily emptying, and while that’s a bittersweet sight, it’s a clear sign of the incredible demand for our wines. With this, we can confidently invest in creating more and better wines deep into the future.

The 2021 vintage is nearly all gone. The 2021 Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon are on our Endangered Wine List and will soon be joined by the Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. If you’ve fallen in love with any of these wines, now’s the perfect time to secure your access to these rare, dwindling vintages by joining the Peony Lane Wine Club. Plus, our next shipment will arrive just in time for Valentine’s Day, making it the perfect gift for yourself or someone you love.

What's Coming in 2025

While watching our current inventory dwindle, I'm incredibly excited about what's aging in the barrels for 2025. The upcoming releases promise to showcase everything that makes our high-altitude terroir special.

• 2023 Estate Pinot Noir: During harvest, it was clear that this would be the best crop since I took over in 2019, but this wine has exceeded even my highest expectations. After careful aging, it’s showing incredible complexity, depth and quaffability already.
• 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon: It’s easy to see why our Cabernet Sauvignon was the first wine from the 2021 vintage to sell out. Aged in French oak, this wine has developed exceptional structure and depth, making it a rare and highly sought-after bottle.
• 2022 Satoshi’s Reserve: Representing the pinnacle of our 2022 harvest, Satoshi’s Reserve is a limited release selected from the finest barrel of each vintage.

Bitcoin & Wine: A Perfect Pairing

As Bitcoin breaks through the $100k mark, I’ve been reflecting on how much the world of Bitcoin and natural wine have in common. Both are products of patience, authenticity, and an unwavering belief in doing things the right way. We’ve received countless photos of empty Peony Lane bottles next to Bitcoin price charts. It’s a special combination—and it fills me with pride to see our community celebrating these shared ideals through our wines.

Looking Ahead to 2025 and Beyond

With limited quantities of some of our most popular wines remaining, now is the time to act. Once these wines are gone, they’re gone. The 2021 vintage was particularly unique, as I worked with new growers to craft varieties like Syrah, Tempranillo, and Merlot—wines that I may never make. While I have Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, and Malbec aging for future releases, the 2021 vintage remains truly one-of-a-kind.

Join the Peony Lane Wine Club to secure access to these rare, limited wines before they’re gone for good.

As we head into the holiday season, I’m honored to see Peony Lane wines find their way to your celebrations, bringing joy to your gatherings with loved ones. There’s nothing quite like sharing a bottle of pure, natural wine with the people you love—especially during this special time of year.

Thank you again for your continued support. I look forward to sharing many more memorable moments and exceptional wines with you in the year ahead.
