Sta. Rita Hills AVA, Santa Barbara, California

The 2017 Pinot Noir comes from a few different vineyards across the Santa Rita Hills, making it a true expression of the varietal from the region. This Pinot leads with a meaty and earthy aroma, followed by subtle hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, the wine shows the same components of earthiness and spice as well as sour cherry and floral flavors which add to its complexity. This wine is approachable in youth but will age well thanks to its well-balanced tannins and acidity.
