Pinot Noir
MED-FULL-BODIED, FIG, BLACK PLUM, CLOVE, COFFEE, COCOA POWDER, HAY, TOAST, OAK
A dark and compelling example of Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley. Rich, perfumed dark fruit aromas on the nose are met by spicy black fig, coffee, cocoa powder, and oak toast flavors on the palate. Undeniably a dense and brooding wine, it remains lifted and nuanced, with a lovely softness to the mouthfeel and a gratifyingly long finish that carries notes of clove, nutmeg, and other barrel spices.

Pinot Noir
MED-BODIED, STRAWBERRY, BLACKBERRY, RASPBERRY, CHERRY ANISE, CLOVE, OAK
Listed on Robert Parker’s Best Wineries of the World in both 1989 & 1999, Au Bon Climate (which is owned by renowned winemaker Jim Clendenen) has achieved an almost mythic level of celebrity in the wine world … and rightly so, in our opinion! Food-friendly and age-worthy, the 2019 Pinot Noir from Santa Barbara County punches way above its price point with mouth filling intensity and suppleness. Still quite young, it should remain “fresh” for the next 6-7 years, but will become more complex & continue to improve with age.

Syrah
FULL-BODIED, BLACK FRUIT, VIOLET, EARTH, SMOKE, LEATHER, PEPPER, OAK
A wine as powerful as it is elegant from one of the more understated producers in the appellation. A dedicated and meticulous grower, Bernard Burgaud operates in a traditional style with a Burgundian approach to winemaking. He believes that that blending of his terroirs results in a more complete, balanced wine: his Côte-Rôtie is from average 35 year old vines across all of his holdings. 15-18 months spent in small oak barriques (20% new); unfined and unfiltered.
