2018 Sea Smoke Southing Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir
95 Points - Vinous: The 2018 Pinot Noir Southing is laced with bold dark-fleshed fruit, menthol, licorice, spice and mocha. A wine of volume and depth, the 2018 offers tons of allure, with plush contours and impeccable overall balance.
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast: Extremely suave aromas of rich black cherry, caramel cream and spearmint make for a wondrous, elegant and silky nose on this monopole bottling. Chiseled, expertly polished tannins frame the more delicate sip, where the black-cherry-cream flavors are enhanced by star anise and nutmeg accents.
