Pacific Coast 2008 Babcock Vineyards Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)

Country: US / Babcock Vineyards
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Pacific Coast / Sta. Rita Hills

Dry and brittle, with less than fully ripened cherry fruit. There’s actually a vegetal edge, which makes the acids and tannins uncomfortably hard. A poor example of this celebrated vineyard.
