The 2020 Alma Rosa Barrel Select Pinot Noir is a special blend created from our favorite barrels from our estate vineyard, El Jabali. Each component was hand-selected by winemaker Samra Morris with the goal of creating a cuvée representative of the special site and vintage. A dark ruby color in the glass, upon pouring, there are aromas of blueberries, black cherries and violets. On the palate, black currants, plum and tobacco combined with chalky tannins and minerality lead to a long and complex finish. This wine is lush and powerfully complex, while still displaying the hallmark freshness of Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir.

The Rancho La Viña Vineyard is located on Santa Rosa Road in the southwest corridor of the Sta. Rita Hills. The Pinot Noir fruit from this site tends to produce wines that are both darker and richer in expression than many of the other vineyards in the area. Our luscious and concentrated 2021 Rancho La Viña Pinot Noir is no exception to this rule. A deep ruby hue sets the stage, followed by dark cherries, orange peel, flowers and a touch of sage on the nose. The palate delights in the integration of red and black fruit flavors, candied orange peel, baking spices and plush tannins, culminating in a delectably harmonious experience.
