2010 vintage. Santa Barbara County. Chardonnay sourced from 2 vineyards: Sandford & Benedict (55%) and Solomon Hills (45%). From the team behind Jonata. Aged 50% in neutral oak, 25% new oak and 25% stainless steel. Light brilliant yellow. Intense perfumes of white peach, lemon and flowers with a hint of coconut. Concentrated with layers of fruit, a certain minerality and crispy acidity. The oak is present but well-integrated. Long lemon confit finish . This should be even better in a few years. — 8 years ago

This was a great easy drinking French styled White. Loved it and would be difficult to tell it is from the central coast and not France. — 10 years ago

Holy cow this was amazing! Hints of chocolate, caramel and nuts. Almost like a nestle crunch nose but with beautiful fruit. Amazing finish and just gorgeous all around. One of my new favorite Pinots. — 11 years ago

Honeydew, pear, lemon, nutmeg, mallow. Acid lingers nicely and so does a richer waxy feel — 11 years ago

Fantastic once opened! Standout mid-range Californian Pinot Noir, with pleasant berry, oak, and vanilla notes. Clear and transparent, medium body means it is good with or without food. Makes me miss home! — 9 years ago
