Longoria 2013 Fe Ciega Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)

Country: US / Fe Ciega Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Longoria / Sta. Rita Hills

Juicy hibiscus and pomegranate fruits converge with dried fennel stalks, purple flowers and a flinty smoke character on the fresh and inviting nose of this bottling from Rick Longoria’s own vineyard. The energy that emerges on the sip is amazingly persistent, which guarantees long aging, presenting flavors of raspberry, pomegranate, dried sagebrush and black licorice. Drink 2017–2028.
