Ojai 2005 Fe Ciega Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)

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

This wine is as fine as anything from Santa Rita Hills. Although it’s young and tight now, its future is assured by the brilliant combination of audacious fruit and classic structure. The blackberry, currant, cherry, anise and clove flavors are wrapped into rich, silky tannins, and brightened with crisp acidity. Best now, with decanting, and for the next 6–8 years.
