Product Description

Tasting notes:

Seaglass Pinot Noir. This Santa Barbara Pinot Noir is a quintessential expression of Santa Barbara County’s cool-climate vines, with its elegant, light-bodied style. Delicate aromas hint at the bright red cherry and strawberry flavours on the palate.

Food:

Beautifully balanced with vibrant acidity, this wine is the ideal complement for grilled salmon, lamb and earthy mushrooms.

Region/Producer:

Seaglass Wine Company gets its name from the shards of glass that are polished—over decades—into beautiful, gems by the natural ebb and flow of wind, sea and fog. Therefore their wines encapsulate the ocean air, the sandy coastline and the fresh acidity of cool-climate fruit along the Central Coast. In other words, crafted from wind-swept vines that give them nuanced flavours in the cellar and complex notes in the glass.  So their wines are an unmistakable expression of California’s coastal vineyards.

Los Alamos Vineyard rests just 20 miles from the Pacific Ocean in Santa Barbara County.  Parallel to the region’s unusual east-west coastal range, whose valleys usher wind and fog across the vines each day. Perhaps most notable for its soil, Los Alamos is comprised almost entirely of sand. That is to say the soil heats up quickly, initiating bud beak earlier than neighbouring sites and affording the grapes more time to develop their signature concentrated flavours.

A minimalist approach to winemaking preserved the fresh, bright character of our Pinot Noir fruit from vineyard to bottle. Following harvest, the grapes were cold soaked for 24 hours. This allows for greater extraction of color and flavor during fermentation. The wine was aged in small oak tanks, creating the perfect balance of delicate varietal flavor, crisp acidity, and nuanced oak notes in this coastal Pinot Noir.
