Clark & Telephone Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

This IS Santa Barbara County Pinot! First taste was a big burst of fruit. Not to sweet, not supple and unsophisticated, not a jammy Zin bomb, mind you. Instead, more like a zing of bright, pure, winey fruit. Remarkable and memorable. We had the 2022 vintage in a magnum bottle so perhaps that helped preserve its freshness and purity. We enjoyed this Big Mama at the Palm Restaurant in downtown LA, celebrating my daughter Rachel’s graduation from UCLA Law School. Congratulations, Rachel! — a day ago

Murto Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016

Ruby with aromas of fresh fruit and floral spice. On the palate flavors of raspberry, cherry and pepper spice with floral notes of rose pedals. Fine dusty tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit and sweet floral notes. Drink now, getting past its prime! — 11 days ago
