Goat Bubbles, Blanc de
Blancs
Santa Maria Valley, 2008
Pale, light straw highlights
sparkle (of course!) in this beautifully white version
of Goat Bubbles.
Teeny, tiny effervescent bubbles dance upward,
teasing and tickling the nose. A bouquet of crisp Gala
apples
with hints of baking bread and key lime zest rise
from the fluted glass, inviting that first refreshing
sip.
Meyer lemon notes, Asian pear, hints of just-ripe
pineapple and stony minerality mingle on the palate,
with a yin-yang
of zesty acidity and creamy texture leading to
a refreshing finish that adds subtle macadamia nuttiness
to this
refreshingly complex sparkler. |

Pinot Noir, Solomon
Hills,
Santa Maria Valley, 2006
A swirl reveals the
spicy character of the wine, with notes of clove and
smoke mingling with dried raspberry.
A first sip reminds one of “sweet tart” candies
with layers of bright red fruits unfolding with some
tine
in the glass. Notes of red currant and rhubarb are
joined by cranberry and warm, rocky earth tones as
the silky
wine glides across the palate. A nice black cherry
cola finish adds to the complexity of the wine. 10th Anniversary Special
- 10% off during month of July! |

Pinot Gris, Sierra
Madre,
Santa Maria Valley, 2008
Crisp and refreshing at first sip, the wine delivers notes
of just ripe pear, clementines and a wisp of fig to the
taste buds. A lemon cream pie type of texture and taste
brings a roundness to the mid-palate and then introduces
a long, stony finish that refreshes and lingers. Enjoy
in its youth with summer salads, spicy fish tacos or friends
on the patio. |

Pinot Noir, Dierberg,
Santa Maria Valley, 2007
A big burst of fruit on the first sip full of raspberry,
some ripe red apple, and more spicy clove-allspice notes
are then intermingled with mocha and sour cherry. A yin-yang
of flavors continues to dance across the palate in this
wonderfully structured and integrated wine. |

Pinot Noir, Rancho
Santa Rosa,
Sta. Rita Hills, 2007
A bit reserved when first uncorked, the wine “broods’
a bit before revealing cranberry and pomegranate aromas.
The first sip, though, glides across the palate with a
sensual silkiness and elegant texture and brings very
berry flavors along the journey. Blackberry, raspberry
and blueberry crumble notes mingle with a bit of sassafras
and rhubarb. Fine tannins are notable on the finish. |

Pinot Noir, Rio
Vista, Clone 2A,
Sta. Rita Hills, 2006
Beautifully glinting from the glass with a dark scarlet
color, the 2006 Pinot Noir “2A” draws you
to its depth of character. Black cherry, sweet fruit,
the renowned Sta. Rita Hills cola component and concentrated
blueberries. Allspice and more dark cherry notes linger
on the palate, entwined with tea-like soft tannins
and
palate-cleansing acids.

Pinot Noir, Rio
Vista, Dijon Clones,
Sta. Rita Hills, 2006
The color is the first to impress, with its dark red color
and deep crimson overtones. The nose is also dark –
black cherries and blackberries, a bit of bramble and
hints of vanilla and chocolate mint swirling with leather
nuances. The wine glides across the palate from entry
to finish with more dark berry fruit, traces of forest
floor, young dusty tannins and a complex and layered mid-palate.
Not as lean as many Sta. Rita Hills wines, the 2006 “Dijon”
features lots of fruit and sophisticated gradations of
acid and tannin.

Pinot Noir, Salisbury,
San Luis Obispo County, 2006
Elegant even in its youth, this Pinot Noir caresses the
palate with firm yet silky texture as notes of raspberry
and dried cherry mingle with smoked bacon and pomegranate.
Soft tannins and a hint of cedar round on the wine, which
also finishes with a lively persistence. |
