Cambria Julias Vineyard Santa Maria Pinot Noir 2022

Wine Enthusiast Review Rated 92 EDITORS CHOICE Rounded cranberry and cherry aromas pick up rustic notes of chaparral and charred meat on the nose of this bottling, which is widely available and fairly priced. The palate is packed with toasted sage and marjoram flavors that enliven the blood orange and pomegranate core. Cambria Estate Winery, located in Santa Barbara County, California, is owned and operated by women. The winery specializes in producing a variety of sustainably-crafted Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays sourced from their own estate. Julia's Vineyard, established in 1986 and named after Julia Jackson, is situated on ancient soils containing fossilized seashells, shale, limestone, and sand. The vineyard boasts fog-swept vines that have thrived since the 1970s. Wine \Tasting Notes

The nose is filled with vibrant red fruit, including pomegranate, dried cranberries, and black cherry. Balanced tannins, along with spice notes of cinnamon, sage, and clove, contribute to the wine's structure and long finish. 100% Pinot Noir CLONES: 56% Clone 4, 20% Clone 667, 13% Clone 23, 7% Clone 2A, 4% Clone 115 Alcohol 13.9%
