"The 2023 Pinot Noir opens with aromas of red cherry, blueberry, rhubarb and touches of dried tobacco. On the palate, it is silky, precise and savory, concluding with a juicy core of staining bright fruits with earthy touches, lifted acidity and gently drying tannins. It's a classic, tried-and-true overview of Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir."
