2018 Scar of the Sea Pinot Noir Seven Leagues Santa Maria Valley

"Light in the glass, this appellation blend starts with inviting aromas of crisp cherry, hibiscus and raspberry, with hints of anise and fennel pollen on the nose. The palate snaps with cranberry skin and chaparral spices, leading into more rounded cherry flavors in the midpalate, as clean acidity pushes through the finish." - Matt Kettmann Review Date: October 2020
