---|---|
Description: | For the winery's top-of-the-line bottling, the best barrels are blended from the best vineyards. The goal is to achieve balance and complexity in a graceful and elegant, yet compelling and complete expression of Pinot Noir from the region. "highliner" is a barrel selection (70% new French oak) of maritime-cooled vineyards in Santa Barbara County, combining the forward fruit and richness of the Santa Maria Valley, with the earthiness and structure of fruit from the Sta. Rita Hills. The blend of vineyards can change with each vintage depending on which ones produce the best of the best for that particular growing season. Antonio Galloni 91 Points - "The 2020 Pinot Noir Highliner is fragrant, aromatic and super-expressive. The blend of sites from Sta. Rita Hills and Santa Maria works beautifully here. Crushed flowers, spice, leather, cedar and pipe tobacco lend considerable nuance throughout. This mid-weight Pinot is a charmer." |
