Foxen 2009 Julia’s Vineyard Pinot Noir (Santa Maria Valley)

Country: US / Julia’s Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Foxen / Santa Maria Valley

A beautiful Pinot, authoritative and masculine, with firm tannins, hard acidity and a bone-dry finish. The core of black cherries, cola, spices and sweet oak is irresistibly good. Compelling now right out of the bottle, and should develop over the next six years.
