2006 Sea Smoke 'Southing' #PinotNoir #SantaBarbara. A classy Sta Rita Hills style with notes of dried red currant, cherry blossom, cherry liqueur and orange rind with savory smoky vanilla spice through the long, silky finish. 14.7 ABV. #wine #sommelier #sommlife #WE4040

Drank from Magnum , cork was soft but the wine was in great condition. Way more vibrant than the last 750 I opened. Beautifully balanced. Plenty of fruit still present.

2006- Tannins are still noticeable. Could use maybe another year? Dark fruits, some smokey notes, still some alcohol but not hot.
