Entry level Pinot - not bad at all, but not as impressive as their higher level offerings. The winery has a great tasting room next to Lompoc. One of the best in Sta. Rita Hills (in my opinion).

Bursting with red fruit and spice including pomegranite and cherry with some thyme and pepper. Great acidity and a good palate with abundant fruit and nice integration of oak. Medium plus finish. This is a good mid priced SRH Pinot.

Really nice SRH Pinot. Not too rich with really bright red fruit aromas (cherry, cranberry, strawberry) with pepper and spice. I’m really impressed with the balanced acidity and tannins and the light/medium body. This has a really nice finish which persists longer than 30 seconds and shows cherry and some spice.

Med-med plus bodied for a Pinot. It's well rounded has big juicy fruit forward flavor. Jammy and stewed cherries and boysenberries . If you haven't tried this wine I highly recommend you do!

Very versatile - ate it with a burger, very good. Fruit forward - aromas/flavors of cherry, strawberry, toasted coconut and cedar.
