A new project from Winemaker, Greg Brewer, Ex Post Facto breaks away from Greg�s Burgundian roots at Brewer-Clifton to explore a Rh�ne style wine from his beloved Santa Barbara County. The origin of the name is from ex post facto law, �a law that makes illegal an act that was legal when committed.� Ex Post Facto encapsulates Greg�s almost deviant desire to go outside his Brewer-Clifton paradigm to explore an outside muse. Greg Brewer has been steadfastly wedded to Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay and Pinot Noir for the entirety of his career. He has also worked with Syrah from the area beginning in 1993 and for decades thereafter working in the services of other wineries. Ex Post Facto is an alteration of outcome for this Chardonnay and Pinot Noir producer.94 Points - VinousThe 2018 Syrah Ex Post Facto is bold
