El Pino Club "Sea Floored" 2021 Pinot Noir Santa Rita Hills

Sea Floored is an ode to the ancient sea floor in which our vineyards are planted and the cool Pacific breezes that help Pinot to thrive in the Sta. Rita Hills. You can taste those maritime roots in its concentrated fruit, balanced acidity and fascinating minerality.

"Grown on limestone soil, which is rare in California, this elegant and intense wine has some firm tannins but fills them well with pretty red and black cherries on a velvety texture. " Jack Suckling 94 Points

"Offers rooibos tea, pomegranate and blood orange notes that impart a wiry, savory, taut feel that holds interest, while a minerally edge pierces the finish nicely. Drink now through 2030. 1,139 cases made." Wine Spectator 91 Points

"Aromas of strawberry sauce on ice cream introduce the nose to this bottling. The palate lands with ample power and texture to frame the strawberry, cinnamon and sumac flavors, as orange rind adds bite to the finish." Wine Enthusiast 91 Points
