Kinda some raisin or torched off fruit in there. Maybe a bit raisinated. Palate is a bit more flush but continuing with the days goodly amount of acidity running through it.

A nice pinot noir from Santa Maria Valley. Very typical flavors for that area...lots of red berries and baking spices. Easy drinking, not very complex but goes well with food. In an odd way the wines from this area make me think of Dr. Pepper and Coca Cola. Fun weekday wine and a good price for a CA wine.

Purchased for $17. Lighter translucent ruby. I love the nose of blueberry, spice, dried flowers and red cherry. More of the same on the palate with sweet, creamy strawberry, spice, tar and vanilla. Medium finish but a nice one. Nice acidity and tannins. Really nice Pinot for the price. Grade: A-

Very good. Not complex, but easy drinking and typical of Santa Barbara style. I would buy again for my regular rotation.

Pleasant strawberry and raspberry with light baking spice. The finish is smooth and medium long highlighting under-ripe, lightly bitter, strawberries.
