Au Bon Climat Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir

Au Bon Climat Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir

Au Bon Climat has been at the forefront making Burgundian-styled Pinot Noir from Santa Barbara County grapes since 1982.

Strawberry and blackberry aromas slowly rise out of the glass. Over time, more of the anise and clove will mix with these other aromas. This wine in its youth has a mouth-filling intensity and suppleness. Complexity will increase as the wine ages, but this wine should stay “fresh” for 6 or 7 years. Like all Au Bon Climat wines, this is a food wine. In its youth, match this wine with lamb or dried meats. After a few years, as the flavours coalesce, it will pair better with salmon or mild red sauce with pasta.
