Expressive floral and spice notes wrap around a core of dark blue and purplish stone fruits in the 2014 Pinot Noir Solomon Hills Vineyard. Silky tannins add to the wine's creaminess and overall textural depth. This is a super-expressive and representative wine from one of Santa Barbara's top sites.

The plump, fruit filled and beautifully textured 2014 Pinot Noir Solomon Hills Vineyard (aged 11 months in 63% new French oak) gives up lots of black raspberry, toasted spice, hints of licorice and underbrush in a medium-bodied, balanced and forward style. This vineyard always shows terrific fruit characteristics, and this is no exception. Drink it over the coming 4-5 years.
