2020 Solomon Hills Vineyard Pinot Noir
Santa Maria Valley
The Solomon Hills Vineyard provides ideal growing conditions that allow its coveted Pinot Noir vines to thrive and consistently produce high quality fruit. The soils of Solomon Hills are composed primarily of ocean floor sandy loams. With the Pacific coastline only miles away, a constant maritime influence results in wines of crisp acidity, rich fruit, and an inherent balance.
The cool growing season in Santa Maria Valley allows Pinot Noir from the Solomon Hills Vineyard to thrive creating wine that is complex and elegant. This wine is beautifully balanced with rich flavors and subtle earth tones. It is full-bodied yet delicate with an enchanting bouquet of fresh raspberry, strawberry and cranberry complemented by hints of nutmeg and vanilla with a hint of earth before the long, silky finish.
