Bien Nacido Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

9.2

Au Bon Climat Bien Nacido Vineyard. Pale Ruby in color . Plum, cherry, cranberry fruits. A touch of spice. Jim’s Pinot Noir’s are so nicely balanced. The wines generally age for 10/20 years. Priced right. — 13 days ago

Bien Nacido Vineyard Syrah 2014

Relative to other Syrah produced in this vineyard as well as most CA Syrah, I love this bottling. The Northern Rhône inspiration shines through, with classic black pepper, olive, earthiness that I enjoy. — 8 days ago

Dark fruit and spice. Smooth and well balanced. This is an excellent SLH Pinot that is hitting its stride at 5 years in the bottle. — 13 days ago

"The Pip" Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir 2016

Awe Some

9.2

Classic Clendenen. Earthy and baking spices, but a ton of finesse. Runs neck and neck with more delicate zins, if you like your fruit. His pinots are some of the most distinctive out west. Not obviously patterned after the RRV "template" or the "rose but with 16psi of juice boost" that seems to infect PNW pinots in this bracket. He did Mary Elke's grapes more justice than just about anyone. His pinots surprise you like a ballerina who can dead lift 300lbs. — 4 hours ago

I’m really liking this, not as big as I would of thought for a CA Chardonnay, but full bodied with nice acid. I paired it with a Kale and Shrimp salad with a lemon-garlic oil dressing at its was a match made in heaven. — 8 days ago
