Samsara Pinot Noir Las Hermanas Vineyard Sta. Rita Hills 2015 750 ML

The 2015 Pinot Noir Rancho la Vina Vineyard has a pale to medium ruby color with aromas of blueberries, roses, crushed stone, tobacco, saline and tangerine peel with rhubarb, strawberry, warm red and black cherries and blackberries with tinges of woodsmoke and earth.Black-raspberry aromas are lifted by lavender, peppercorns and eucalyptus on the nose of this single-vineyard expression. Bay leaf flavors are strong on the palate, giving herbal energy to the tangy, underripe red-fruit base.\n \n \n The light to medium-bodied palate is silky, featuring broody spices and fruits and swelling with pleasantly chewy tannins and juicy freshness before finishing with tons of vibrant energy.
