The bouquet displays intense tropical and floral notes packed with honeysuckle, passion fruit, pear, and melon.

A tour de force, this exquisite example of Pinot Noir from the highly pedigreed Santa Rita Hills appellation shows off waves of dark berries, black plum, dried tea leaves, cranberry, hints of toasty oak and then culminates in a 40 second finish.

Straw-colored, aromas of toasted hazelnut, stone fruit and lemon oil rise from the glass.

Savory notes develop mid palate showing plum and graphite while leading to an elegant hint of toasted oak on the lingering finish.

The palate is ultra rich, providing a hedonistic purity of fruit that its vineyard sites are famous for.
