  Store Pick 'em Blind Tasting (Grapes & Grains, Temecula, CA): Just a taste, similar notes as before. Called the Sta Rita Hills before even asking what the wine was.

  Up the PCH; 6/4/2019-6/16/2019 (Santa Barbara, Santa Ynez, Paso Robles, Napa, and Willamette): Nice pinot from Barden - my favorite of the tasting. Complex fruit aromas w/ blueberry, nice earthiness, wood aromatics. Nice guys in the tasting room. $20 tasting w/ free burgundy glass.
  
  La Encantada Vineyard (27%)
  Sanford & Benedict Vineyard (24%)
  John Sebastiano Vineyard (28%)
  Radian Vineyard (21%)
  
  All hand sorted, 18% whole cluster, bottled un-fined and unfiltered. Matured in 10 months mostly in new French oak. Only free-run wine used, no SO2 during maturation on full lees.
