Sourced from nearly 50-year-old vines in the limestone-rich Bien Nacido Vineyard, it offers a Burgundian sense of elegance with a distinctly coastal California personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows a graceful, luminous ruby hue. The nose is expressive and layered, with red cherry, raspberry, pomegranate, lavender, rose petals, and a hint of dark earth rising from the glass. On the palate, it is silky and refined, unfolding with cherry, blood orange, exotic spice, and a fresh touch of mint on the finish.\n\nThe wine has real energy and clarity, balancing perfume, fruit purity, and savory complexity with impressive precision. While already charming in its youth, it has the structure and balance to evolve beautifully over the next 10 years, gaining more nuance and earthy complexity with time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Pinot Noir comes from the celebrated Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Barbara County, where the limestone-rich soils and cool coastal conditions give the variety ideal growing conditions. The vines are nearly 50 years old, contributing depth and concentration to the wine. After pressing and fermentation, Gavin Chanin aged the wine for 14 months in French oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop texture, spice, and subtle complexity without overpowering its delicate fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is an excellent match for duck breast, roast chicken, salmon, mushroom dishes, game birds, and truffle-based pasta or risotto.
