Magnum - 2018 Pinot Noir - Sta. Rita Hills
93 points - Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast
Complex aromatics with big fruit focus and more subtle minerality and chaparral/herbal qualities as well. Generous on the palate with richness and fruit-driven flavors, with bright acidity that helps maintain freshness and balance. Silky texture with fine but firm tannins providing structure and length. -Lily Hays, Direct to Consumer Business Manager

"This appellation blend is juicy while elegant, starting with aromas of black raspberry, intense hibiscus and a hint of carnation. The vibrant palate bounces from lively blasts of crushed currants, red plum and pomegranate to spicy tones of white pepper." -Matt Kettmann

"The medium ruby colored 2018 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills has soft wild strawberry aromas with wafts of citrus peel and earth. The medium-bodied palate balances juicy acidity and crunchy fruits with a gently chalky texture, and it has a long, floral finish." -Erin Brooks
