Estate Grown Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir
Have always like this wine which continues to have a low profile. Sleeper.

Jul 3rd, 20152011 - Light, tasty, hint of earth, and not too fruity. Reliable..but not a good value at $44.
At $20-25, this would be a go-to reliable Pinot. At this cost, it can't compete with the likes of Foxen's options.

30% new oak for 10 months. Bigger mouth feel. Pairs better with food. Fruitier and easier to drink than drum canyon from same winery. Fuller tannins.
