Solid blend of Pinot from Santa Barbara. Good fruit extraction, nice mouth feel. A typical style from that area. CB 91

Doesn’t taste like a Pinot, but it a nice, light red

Maybe a bad bottle. Sorta bitter aftertaste that made it undrinkable.

Solid Pinot but lacks that acid-fruit-texture balance that you'd find in a Pinot from the nearby Sta. Rita Hills AVA. Likely just a little too young but if you're looking for something light, it'll do the trick.

These Loring appellation pinots still represent great value. This particular one seems a little more restrained than some in the past which was fine for me.
