Showing tertiary aromas and flavors. Medium garnet color. Medium intensity. Toast and cranberry jam aromas. Soft and supple on the palate. Medium(+) finish. #santabarbaracounty #santabarbarapinot #sbcountywines #sbccounty #sbc #pinotnoir — 4 years ago

I think this is around 15% but it doesn't have a hint of the heat that over-powered this wine 2 years ago. A balanced beauty now. Ripe cherry, floral notes and I do pick up some of the stem flavor (I think they employ whole bunch fermentation) but to me I like the character it provides. Modern? Yes. Big? Yes. Do I like it? Yes. Do I like Burgundy more? Yes. Do I like both blondes and brunettes? Absolutely. So why can't we have both? — 10 years ago

I’m tasting this alongside old vines Gevrey Chambertin and a Côtes de Nuits Villages from a great winemaker and this rocks. Juicier and sooo balanced! Violets and cherries abound. Could be our #SB expensive house wine for when people in Spain ask what SB wines are like? Good ass #pinot #pinotnoir #sbcounty #santabarbarapinot #santabarbaracounty — 4 years ago

#smokey #meaty #floral #pinot that's right all of that with luscious soft tannins and great length. The perfect wine for smoked meats or pastrami or a smoked salmon. Really good #sbcwine #santaritahills #santabarbara #santabarbarapinot — 9 years ago

The winemaker is a really nice lady and all of her wines are great. Especially her Pinot and her Tempranillo. She's in the #Lompoc Wine Ghetto

It clearly has some charred oak which is what's giving the smokey qualities, then there's the 14.8% Alc. Which gives it the soft tannins and ripe cherries. It amazingly maintains its acidity and is really well balanced. Best in show at the California state fair

Very interesting.

Pure, high-toned. Fraises, sous-bois and minerals; direct and satisfying like a top St Aubin. Excellent value. #ojaivineyard #santabarbarapinot — 7 years ago

Red, black, and possibly blue fruits. This is a berry bash with brooding and bold fruit. Lacks structure and elegance but is intense on the nose and full on the palate. A very tasty wine. #santabarbarapinot #pinotnoir #california #lea — 9 years ago
