2023 Technical Specifications
Alcohol 13.5%
pH 3.63
Total Acidity 5.4 g/L
Grape Varieties 100% Pinot Noir
Region Santa Barbara County
Harvest Dates September 2023 (multiple pickings)
Sites The majority came from Bien Nacido, North Canyon and Rancho Real vineyards in Santa Maria Valley, with a small percentage from Kick On and Los Alamos Vineyard in the Los Alamos area.
Oak Types François Frères French oak
Used Oak Only Yes
Production Details Hand harvested; fermented in small lots with daily manual punch-downs. The vintage-specific cooperage panel reports 10 months in neutral François Frères French oak barrels, while the narrative gives a broader 8–12-month range; both statements are retained without conversion to days. The sheet prints residual sugar as “<0” without a unit, so no residual_sugar_gl value is proposed.
Tasting Notes Red currant, blueberry and blood orange, followed by bay leaf, white pepper and wet stone; balanced tannin and acidity, structured palate and pleasing mouthfeel.
Food Pairing Tri-tip sandwiches with salsa, smash burgers, or a strawberry-and-mint salad.
