More ripe and fruity than I remembered. Clearly warm climate #pinot #sbcountywines brown sugar and raspberry pie nose, balanced and soft tannins. Delicious wine, but perhaps lacking tension, acidity and texture.

More earthy than their other releases. Really enjoying it's more restrained fruit and expressive terroir character. Still balanced and food friendly.

I love me some Sta. Rita Hills Pinot and this guy was rock solid. Well balanced, rich and won't leave you hanging with the finish

A splendidly complex and perfectly balanced Pinot from the literal edge of the #staritahills AVA and from rising star @hilliardbrucevineyards visting and getting to know these wines is a MUST. #delectableapp
