Very bright. High acid. Tart and nervy. Interesting and I believe will age very cool. #pinotnoir #santacruz

Youthful from stem to stern; it’s a joy of a Pinot. It’s always hinting at greater depth and as it breathes and relaxes more of that depth begins to show.

Subtle and balanced. Good lift, fruit driven and in a very nice zone. Solid intro to this producer. My guess is this is an early drinker so get to it.

Sour blackberry, dried strawberry, tea, wet sand and some whole cluster spice. My first Santa Cruz Pinot. Very nice. Almost like a combination of Sonoma Coast and Oregon.

This was gifted to me by Matt Licklider himself at CHSWFF a couple years ago. Holy sandalwood. So sexy.

ripper pinot.... herbal and tea like notes with the fruit balanced by the texture, acidity and tannin... The fragrance is awesome.
