MacMurray Estate Central Coast Pinot Noir 2021

"Siduri explores two exceptional areas within Santa Barbara County that are exceptionally well - suited for growing Pinot Noir - Santa Maria Valley and the Sta. Rita Hills. Pinot Noirs from the Santa Maria Valley provide "crunchy" fresh fruits that are laden with spice notes, while Pinot Noirs from the Sta. Rita Hills provide opulent red and black fruits that jump from the glass with tremendous energy. The marriage of these two distinctive growing areas provides a portrait of a beautiful place to grow cool - climate Pinot Noir." —winemaker

"At this early stage the aromatics show a generous number of dark fruits like cherry, black plum and pomegranate concentrate, with a buried treasure chest of spices circling your senses. Then, it’s the palate that belies the true depth of this rich Pinot Noir. A delightful gallimaufry of Luxor cherries, red cranberry compote, strawberry leather, black currant, mission fig, and prickly pear jam is layered into spiced Sichuan peppercorn, petrichor, and Christmas spice. This wine has a most generous middle "sweetness," and depth that pipes into a long, rich, sanded tannin finish." —winemaker

"Vivid red ruby in the glass, this wine opens with aromas of red fruit, cherry, blackberry and hints of earthiness, delicate toast and vanilla spice. The palate is rich, with refined silky tannins, medium acidity and flavors of cherry, red plums, raspberry and subtle notes of allspice on a long elegant finish." —winemaker

"Aromas and flavors of black cherry, red plum, cranberry, wild strawberry, vanilla, milk chocolate, sassafras, nutmeg, baking spices, black tea, sandalwood, and forest floor." —winemaker

"Finely composed notes of ripe cherry and pomegranate are in tune with a vibrant herbal spiciness on the nose. The intricate, sleek palate reaches out with luscious red fruits and a fine lift of tannin to reign it all in. Energized and compelling, the medium body and elegant mouthfeel are sure to engage." —winemaker

"La Crema Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir offers aromas of raspberry, cranberry, black licorice, and exotic tea notes. On the palate, red cherry, plum, and boysenberry, subtle hints of espresso and cocoa nib underpin notes of spice and toast. Firm yet integrated tannins and bright acidity drives a long finish." —winemaker

"The 2021 cuvée has the cranberry-like more tart fruit flavors that they always hope for in the Santa Cruz Mountains differentiating it from the more strawberry cola flavors of the North Coast and darker more blueberry flavors found further south. This is a maritime wine with acidity, lean, but not thin. There is just a touch of sweet richness from the 7% new oak." —winemaker

"Textbook Willamette Valley Pinot Noir with juicy, fresh fruit and berry flavors - think dark cherry, blackberry, more cherry. Black tea, anise, clove, mocha and vanilla accents abound adding complexity. The texture is ripe and plush with a line of acid running through to keep the wine vibrant. The wine is all about focus, electricity, and verve." —winemaker

"Our debut release is a brilliant ruby red color offering complex aromas of chaparral, cherry blossom, rhubarb, cranberry, forest floor, mint, and truffle. An exuberant swirl of red and black fruit is at the forefront on the lushly-textured black cherry, boysenberry, blackberry, and Cara Cara orange-flavored palate. Supple, dusty tannins and uplifting acidity add depth and freshness, respectively, to the wine while savory iron, mocha, and rose hip notes chime in on the finish." —winemaker

"Bright, polished, and impeccably balanced, this wine embodies the depth and nuance of the finest Sonoma Coast Pinot Noirs. The nose offers a melange of black raspberry, Bing cherry, rhubarb, and forest floor aromas, along with hints of holiday spice. On the palate, velvety tannins carry the lush, flowing flavors to a vibrant fruit and spice finish." —winemaker
