Moving to the Pinot Noirs, the 2020 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills reveals a medium ruby hue to go with a smoky, sappy herb, scorched earth, and both red and black-fruited perfume as well as medium-bodied richness, terrific overall balance, supple tannins, and a great finish.
The 2020 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills comes from several vineyards, including Radian, Bentrock, Spear, Duvarita and Rinconada. It has very savory aromas of wood smoke, pipe tobacco, dried cranberries and blackberries with touches of oolong tea leaves and mushrooms. The light-bodied palate is soft, bright and spicy with wood smoke-laced fruits and a bitters-laced finish. It feels clean, yet a slight rusticity to its expression suggests it may be best to drink this over the next couple of years. Best After 2022
