Most Santa Cruz pinots I've had are light in color but pack a surprising amount of flavor as this one is. Pinot fruit is a bit more austere/held back; "underbrush" comes to mind. Enjoyable.

Dense, compact, balanced. This should age well

Really nice! Characteristic SCM mushroominess, and a touch of forest floor. Great with lobster!

What I love about this is that it oozes SCM character. Beautiful fruit and forest floor.
