A Santa Barbara area Pinot. Deep Ruby color with aromas of red fruits, forest floor and spice, spent about 15 months in French oak (50% new). On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with cedar notes, cinnamon spice and earthy herbs. Full-bodied, fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, oak and an earthy character. Nice! Drinking well now!

Mellow and fruity - could use another few years of bottle aging to bring umami notes to life.

Red fruit, cherry, cedar, wet leaves and stone. Mouth coating with a good touch of acidity to keep it interesting. Finish is grippy and lasts.
