    The 2017 Pinot Noir Santa Barbara County is a winner as well as a good value. Complex underbrush, spice, leafy herbs, and ripe red (and some darker) fruits emerge from the glass, and this elegant, medium-bodied beauty has silky tannins and a great finish. It's going to evolve for a solid decade.

    A blend of fruit from three vineyards, including Zotovich and Sanford & Benedict, this is smoky, with umami notes coming up against tart blueberry flavors. It’s bright, tense and lean, with a carob-like grip of tannins. For duck. 

  • 91

    Made with about 20% to 30% new oak and whole clusters, the 2017 Pinot Noir Santa Barbara County has a medium ruby-purple color and broody notes of cranberries, blackberries, forest floor, cured meats and underbrush. The palate is light to medium-bodied and very silky with perfumed fruits, great freshness and an understated finish.

As links in a chain, we understand the importance of working together with premium sites and talented winegrowers. Fruit quality is essential to crafting memorable wines of elegance, balance, and harmony. At each vineyard site during each vintage, vines are carefully managed and yields are restricted in an effort to achieve the ultimate concentration of flavor. With respect to Mother Nature, harvest decisions are based intending to display the purest, most natural vineyard expression possible.

Throughout the winemaking process, to produce a seamless balance between grape variety and site, the wines are carefully handcrafted with minimal intervention. Bringing together passion, artistry, and intuition, we are always leaning on the history of this ageless craft and never forgetting ‘those who went before us and showed us the way.'

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.
