Our Pinot Noir is made from some of Santa Barbara County’s great cool-climate Pinot Noir vineyards. It’s a selection of barrels from Sanford & Benedict and Kick On Ranch. All the vineyard lots were fermented separately with as much as 100% whole clusters in a couple of the lots, to build in a little extra tannin and complexity.
The wine is bright with ripe Bing cherries and notes of clove. Aromatically, it’s redolent of nutmeg and baking spice with a touch of tobacco and cranberry, while the palate has ocean breeze acidity and great energy to ride along with its light, juicy, savory red fruit.
