"The 2022 Pinot Noir Bien Nacido Vineyard Santa Barbara Historic Vineyards Collection is exquisite. Crushed flowers, mint, orange peel, spice and red cherry fruit all grace this striking offering. The 2022 marries fruit intensity with plenty of Santa Maria floral and spice character. The 67% whole clusters are impeccably balanced. The 2022 is not a big wine, but it is quite deep."
Winemaker Notes:
"This exciting vintage of Pinot Noir from Bien Nacido erupts with aromas of mixed berries and watermelon. The nose is complemented on the palate with notes of ginger, leather, and dried sage, adding complexity with spicy and earthy undertones. Medium body in texture with refined grippy tannins on the finish. An exceptional wine to drink young, but undoubtedly rewards those who age this bottle."
Alcohol: 13.5%
