Kenneth-Crawford 2006 Babcock Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)

Country: US / Babcock Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Kenneth-Crawford / Sta. Rita Hills

Fresh and immediately appealing for its silky texture and forward flavors of cherries, cotton candy, vanilla and sweet, smoky oak. But this is no mere taste treat. It’s a serious, layered Pinot Noir, whose vital balance will help it evolve over the next six years.
