2020 Whitcraft Winery Santa Barbara Pinot Noir

What it is:

100% Pinot Noir aged in neutral Oak barrels. From the Santa Barbara region of California, USA.

Why we like it:

Central Coast Pinot Noir is quickly gaining attention world wide. The wines rival the best Pinot Noir's of Burgundy. This Whitcraft wine drinks much closer to Burgundy than anything else from California. The whole cluster fermentation, excellent vineyard selection and tiny production make this a suitable rival for the great wines of Burgundy. If you are tired of fighting over Burgundy allocations, try this wine, you won't be disappointed.
