Sea Smoke Botella Pinot Noir 2024

Sea Smoke 'Botella' Pinot Noir 2024 is an exquisite, highly sought-after estate-grown red wine crafted from biodynamically farmed vineyards in the heart of the cool-climate Sta. Rita Hills AVA. In the glass, it displays a brilliant ruby hue with dark garnet reflections. The fragrant nose opens with lush aromas of ripe dark cherry, wild blackberry, and pomegranate, elegantly intertwined with underlying notes of crushed slate, lavender, star anise, and subtle toasted oak spice. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied, refined, and beautifully textured, balancing rich core fruit flavors with vibrant natural acidity and fine-grained, silky tannins that carry into a long, focused, and persistent finish.

Food Pairing: Duck breast with cherry reduction, pan-seared salmon, roasted rack of lamb, wild mushroom risotto, pork tenderloin, and aged Gruyère or Comté cheese.
