    March 4, 2018 - 2005 FOXEN SEA SMOKE VINEYARD STA. RITA HILLS PINOT NOIR- this was heavily extracted, powerful juice with young and vibrant super ripe dark fruit dominating; it had lively tannins and some heat which eased up after some time in the glass; in fact, after a few minutes, it got much less intense and moved into a more palatable state.

    July 1, 2014 - Prime drinking window. the wine is superbly put together with lovely fruit and structure. No point in aging this anymore so enjoy with salmon or pork with a fruity sauce.

    November 10, 2013 - lovely SB pinot. With vineyard is of course amazing. The wine has a flavor profile typical of the Santa Rita Hills. Bright and crisp. The wine is in the perfect drinking window.... enjoy.

    but a fantastic Central Coast Pinot.
