Garys' Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

Medium Ruby color with layered aromas of fresh berry fruits with floral and woodsy spice notes. On the palate flavors of strawberry and ripe raspberry with cigar box, oak, black tea, citrus, cola and herb floral notes. Well balanced, savory fine tannins, long finish ending with oaky earthy notes. Nice! — a month ago

Sea Smoke

Ten Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir 2011

The anticipation and patience displayed holding this for 10 years was amply rewarded. Clear, brick-ish color, tight nose that eventually opened to loads of red fruit, Burgundy like in its combination of lushness and reserve. Subtle and layered even after all these years. — 17 days ago

'Tri Appellation' Santa Barbara, Monterey, Sonoma County Pinot Noir 2022

CSB
9.0

Dark ruby color
Initial smell (even after letting it open up): alcohol, followed by rich, dark plum and dark red cherries and peppery spices
Body: medium body with viscous legs, but denser or perhaps more substantial than the typical Pinot noir. Feels more warm weather climate than cool, much more open and ripe grapes.
Texture: moderate but smooth tannins with an overall lovely finish
Taste notes: dark berries/dark cherry and fresh white pepper with a refreshing lingering tartness
