Dried black cherry, iron, smoke and dried herbs show on the nose of this bottling. There is lively acidity on the palate, carrying flavors of dried raspberry, rose petals and oregano.

Every once in awhile, a casual stroll on the beach yields an unexpected treasure—an unbroken shell, an unusually shaped stone, a piece of sea glass. Occasionally, the same thing happens with wine - one taste, and you know you’ve found something special, something unique. SEAGLASS Wine Company gets its name from the shards of glass that are polished—over decades—into beautiful, one-of-a-kind gems by the natural ebb and flow of wind, sea and fog. SEAGLASS offers a rewarding discovery of high quality, fresh, bright flavorful wines with a casual yet sophisticated take on California’s Central Coast wine growing region.It’s time you discovered SEAGLASS Wines.
Pinot Noir is the second-most planted grape in Santa Barbara County, just behind Chardonnay. It thrives in cooler areas of the region, namely in the of the Sta. Rita Hills, which is part of Santa Barbara’s larger Santa Ynez Valley sub-appellation. Thought for decades to be too cool for viticulture, Sta. Rita Hills began to gain notoriety in the 1970’s, thanks to the pioneering work of Richard Sandford and Michael Benedict, among others.
Santa Barbara Pinot Noir dances across the palate with vivid red fruit and spice. Precision, bright acidity, elegance and fruit-driven silkiness make Santa Barbara Pinot delightfully enjoyable, whether on their own or with a variety of dishes.
