Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir
Sta. Rita Hills, Central Coast, California, USA
From Clos Pepe, Radian, Fiddlestix & Bentrock vineyards, aged for 10 months in French oak (45% new), aromas of ripe red berry fruits and complex spice. On the palate cherry and raspberry flavors with notes of tea and pepper wrapped in smoky oak. Fine tannins, nicely balanced lingering ending with an earthy mineral tang.

Ruby hue with pink rim variation. Cherry liqueur, mulberry, fresh fig, dill, violets, and delicate notes of nutmeg and cured meat on the nose. Bold flavor, bright red fruit on the palate. Clean finish.

Pretty decent if not highly predictable. Perfumed with floral & medicinal notes, cola, bright cherries, cherry syrup, Chinese five spice. Energetic and palatable, but a little mangled in structure. Good for what it is but still not entirely my jam.

Disappointed, ABV too high and never really came together.
