The Gevrey of Central Coast Pinots. Mushroom, black tea and roasted fruits, balanced by energy, low alcohol and lift. Excellent value. #longoria #pinotnoir #staritahills

Dusky and pleasingly mineral. Lots of Santa Rita black tea, spice box & cocoa. Cool, refined and taut. Long life ahead.

The Lovely Rita lives up to its name with subtle, yet lingering, flavors of black cherries and savory herbs. Paired well with both meat and fish dishes.

More open & accessible than the '13. Markedly Sta Rita Hills, but lighter on its feet, better balanced. Tea smoke, cocoa.

Nice perfumed nose, but falls a little flat on the palate. May need some more time to integrate. Has potential.
