My favored of the tasting 2nd place of all the votes absolutely delicious Chardonnay great value just too much butter for me but still shows layers of flavor — 3 days ago
The anticipation and patience displayed holding this for 10 years was amply rewarded. Clear, brick-ish color, tight nose that eventually opened to loads of red fruit, Burgundy like in its combination of lushness and reserve. Subtle and layered even after all these years. — 12 days ago

A first and a surprise! Late fall flowers and minerals acidic balanced tingling palate and good finish. Didn’t do quite as well the next two days in Eto as aromas faded. — a month ago
Dark ruby color
Initial smell (even after letting it open up): alcohol, followed by rich, dark plum and dark red cherries and peppery spices
Body: medium body with viscous legs, but denser or perhaps more substantial than the typical Pinot noir. Feels more warm weather climate than cool, much more open and ripe grapes.
Texture: moderate but smooth tannins with an overall lovely finish
Taste notes: dark berries/dark cherry and fresh white pepper with a refreshing lingering tartness

Sipping Fine Wine
Owner Doug Margerum and winemaker Doug "Scotty" Scott, craft world-class wine working with the top vineyards in Santa Barbara County. Blend of 49% Grenache, 31% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre, 5% Counoise, 5% Cinsault. Deep Ruby with dark fruit and floral aromas with complex spice. On the palate flavors of plum, cherry and raspberry with lively acidity. The finish brings notes of cacao, licorice, espresso and earthy minerality on a long ending. Nice value. — 11 days ago
