Bien Nacido Estate 2021 Estate Pinot Noir Nacido Vineyard Santa Maria Valley

Silky and savory, this 2021 Pinot Noir from Bien Nacido's famed vineyard layers red cherry, earth, and coastal spice in true Santa Maria style.

"Moving to the reds, the 2021 Pinot Noir was raised in 45% new barrels and reveals a translucent ruby hue as well as a gorgeous bouquet of spiced red and black raspberry fruits, leafy herbs, forest floor, and baking spices. Medium-bodied on the palate, it's not the most massive or richest in the vintage, yet its balance is spot on, it has beautifully integrated tannins, and lively acidity. It's a stunning Pinot Noir with so much character. Drink bottles over the coming 7-8 years." Jeb Dunnuck 96 Points
