2018 The Ojai Vineyard Fe Ciega Vineyard Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir

12.5% alc., $53. · Moderately light garnet color in the glass. Engaging aromas of black cherry, rose petal and herb cupboard. Exuberant flavors of cherry, strawberry and cherry with a bit of spice and dried herbs in a middleweight fashion. The aromas and flavors pick up interest over time in the glass and reach a peak the following day from a previously opened bottle. The svelte tannins and long finish complete the grand impression. Score: 94. Reviewed September 19, 2021
