Featured in the film “Sideways,” blend of Santa Maria Valley, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Rita Hills and Los Alamos vineyards, Ruby with aromas of red fruits and spice, aged French and Hungarian oak (45% new). On the palate flavors of juicy cherry and currants with tea and smoky spice, great balance and structure. Fine soft tannins, long savory finish ending with fruit and spice character. Very nice!

Aug 20th, 2021This is drinking really nicely now- highly recommend- sometimes you have to wait for these older vintages to shine- this one is light &fruity, A nose that will challenge not only your memory but your palate. Notes of strawberry, cherries, a hint of vanilla. It's mouth feel is perhaps the most even ever felt on this tongue. Perhaps amongst one of their best vintages of from the" legend-(wait for it) dairy" terriors in the Santa Rita lowlands that Grey and Frank have offered. Although this label continues to amaze year after year with their simplicity, consistency and value.
One would expect to lay much more for this bottle, which makes it a very good choice. #HitchingPostWines #Sideways #PunotNoir #SantaRitaHills
