"This bottling, which benefits a regenerative farming nonprofit, comes from a hillside vineyard in a unique terroir. Crunchy aromas of wild raspberry, singed kelp and potpourri combine bold fruit with savory herbaceousness. The palate shows even more herb, pairing bay leaf and green sage flavors with pomegranate and strawberry fruits. " Matt Kettmann"

"From the Jalama Canyon Ranch west of Sta. Rita Hills, the 2022 Pinot Noir White Buffalo Land Trust was co-fermented with small amounts of Chardonnay. The nose is bright, energetic and pure, leading to a seamlessly elegant and silky palate. The finish is rich and finely structured, with impressive tenacity and length through the finish."
