La Bauge Au-Dessus Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir 2019

Quite light ruby , with a wide ruby garnet rim. Quite sweet red fruit at first with some raspberry , strawberry and red cherry notes , dried flowers as well , rose , violet and an earthy note . Quite elegant and precise . On the palate this is again elegant and restrained , very pretty red fruits , juicy but still fresh acidity . Light tannins balanced alcohol . Cherry , raspberry and wild strawberry . Herbal tinged , slightly earthy finish . Drinking very well now and will continue to do so over the next 3-5 years or so — 6 months ago

Alban Estate Vineyard Viognier 2021

Hard to beat the Estate version.
The 2021 Viognier Estate was mostly barrel fermented and matured, with the exception of a small portion of terracotta.
I’ll hold my last bottle a bit longer though.
