MacMurray Estate Central Coast Pinot Noir 2019

"The wine owes much of its complexity to its varied upbringing, unifying grapes from California's most notable winegrowing regions. Meiomi Pinot Noir brings you structure and depth seldom seen in a Pinot Noir wine, thanks to its unique and meticulous aging process. Aged for six months in French oak barrels, this California red wine's juicy strawberry flavor and notes of dark berries and toasted mocha add complexity and depth on the palate." —winemaker

"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

"The 2022 vintage was spectacular in the Willamette Valley, as is reflected in this dense, supple and flat-out delicious Planet Oregon Pinot Noir. The aromatics captivate with chocolate and fresh berry scents; the smooth, rich palate brings those flavors along with orange peel, pie cherries and sweet toast." —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

"Deep garnet in color with abundant aromas of dark chocolate, black cherry, and blackberry pie with hints of black currant and cedar. There are layered flavors of blackberry and raspberry pie filling on the palate, accompanied by notes of cinnamon, chocolate, and nutmeg. This wine is smooth and focused with refined tannins and a mouthwatering finish." —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

"Classic Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir. It is a deeply colored, fruit forward Pinot with a nose of spiced cranberry, strawberry and hibiscus. The abundance of fruit continues on the palate showing plum, dark cherry, and cranberry with nuances of anise, tea and clove. It is a powerful Pinot at a great price point." —winemaker

"Exquisitely crafted, harmoniously woven flavors of cherry, plum and blueberry with subtle notes of cedar bark. Boasting an elegant, velvety texture that gracefully carries earthy and dark cherry nuances across the palate. Impeccable balance complemented by vibrant acidity, continues to a lasting finish." —winemaker
