This fantastic Pinot Noir from Ojai is sourced from the cool climate of historic Bien Nacido vineyard located in the middle of the Santa Maria Valley. It is light-bodied with a pretty bouquet of sour cherry, strawberry, rose pedal, graphite, crushed rock and loamy soil. This possesses wonderful balance and purity, with fresh red fruits, chewy tannins and a lingering finish. This age worthy Pinot will demand 3-5 years of cellaring before it will begin to hit full-stride and should be capable of lasting up to 20 years. (Best 2018-2030) - April, 2014 (MD)
