Santa Maria Pinot that paired perfectly with our Ronald Reagan dinner; Tri Tip steak, Pinquinto Beans, Arugula Salad

2015 opened April 2022. Sage and leather on the nose. Blackberries on the front. Tannins are understated but silky and medium bodied. They offset some bitter high notes on the mid palate, and they give this Pinot a particularly long mineral (gravelly) finish. I like this wine.
