Winemaker Matt Dees aged the 2021 for 20 months in 80% new French oak, pushing concentration without losing the tension that Ballard Canyon’s 40°F diurnal temperature swings provide. The estate is the Santa Barbara sister winery to Screaming Eagle — same owner, Stan Kroenke — with the same site-specificity and minimal-intervention philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly 720 cases produced. The 2021 earned 97+ points from both Antonio Galloni (Vinous) and Jeb Dunnuck, plus 96 from Wine Advocate. Galloni called it “one of the most impressive wines I tasted this year in Santa Barbara.” Built for 2–3 decades in the cellar; generous with 1–2 hours of decanting now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePAIRINGS :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eDry-aged ribeye\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edense black fruit and gravelly tannins match the char and fat of prime-cut beef\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eBraised short ribs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslow-cooked richness mirrors the wine’s silky, layered depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eAged sheep’s milk cheese\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003esaline, nutty character provides contrast to the dark fruit intensity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Eastside Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62452448264351,"sku":"8484","price":147.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/eastsidecellars.com\/products\/2021-jonata-el-desafio-de-jonata-red-750ml","provider":"Eastside Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
