My last bottle from the defunct yet memorable winery.
Smells so delicious, like a fruit yogurt
This drinks like it is fresh, with blackberry bramble, subtle and unique red fruits tucked behind the leather ones.
Tannins are still very gripping, and the acidity tames it back. A touch of heat and its off to the races! — a year ago

Drinking this in Kauai is perfect. You can’t tell where the smells of Kauai cut grass, rain, and flowers end and this wine begins. Grapefruit, lychee, grass, papaya, some tart green apple underneath, but wow does this taste more tropical on the island. This always reminds me of the beach in SB but now will transport me to the garden isle as well. — 10 months ago
This is a great version of a California Zin. Nice notes of spice and pairs so well with a red meat meal. Found this on sale and will go get more while I can. Love the label and the cork. I am under a thunderstorm warning and this is so nice to watch the clouds rolling. Get some. — 2 years ago
Very pale and translucent. Predominately vegetal character. Nose is dominated by funky vegetal notes. Palate packs a punch but in an understated way. Strong negroni notes - orange and some strawberry. Serious unique wine that shows how pinot expresses place better than any grape. — 3 months ago
Fresh with pinpoint tannins and vibrant, juicy acids. Very Santa Barbara with fresh picked red berries and garrigue. Rustic and intense but also creamy on the finish. — a year ago
Periphery of typicity, but too sunkissed for my preference. — 2 years ago
