Few different lesser name vineyards from Santa Barabra. Has that Santa Barbara fruit character. Ripe fruit and with a touch of green. Juicy fruit in therer though, and at the price... why not.

Medium ruby color. Juicy black cherries and sweet raspberries mix with cola, rhubarb, light roast coffee and some white pepper. Full but smooth with light and velvety tannins and fresh, tangy acidity. Cherries, raspberries, crunchy red apples, with notes of rhubarb, pepper, coffee and mint. A lot of flavor, but more importantly, balance and vibrancy, which is really rare in a California Pinot at this price point.
