Bien Nacido Vineyards Block I
Santa Maria, Santa Barbara County AVA
The esteemed Block I within the Bien Nacido Vineyard is one of a kind, own rooted and planted in 1973. Fine Sandy Loam soils at an elevation of 450ft. Aged for 10 months on light lees in 100% French Oak, 15% new.
"The nose offers mineral and ocean-influenced aromas of lemon pith, salt brine, chalk and struck match. The palate is medium-bodied with bright acidity and tightly wound notes of nectarines, key lime pie, sea salt and grapefruit. Very thoughtful and well made." 94 pts, James Suckling.
