Alma Rosa Bentrock Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018
Bentrock is the westernmost vineyard along Santa Rosa Road in the Santa Rita Hills. The site’s close proximity to the Pacific Ocean, combined with the north-facing hilly topography made up of clay, sediment, shale and diatomaceous earth soils, produces wines full of character.
A striking medium ruby color in the glass, the 2018 Bentrock Vineyard Pinot Noir is a beautiful representation of the possibilities of the famed Bentrock vineyard. On the nose, complex and savory aromas of wood smoke, leather, tobacco and meat blend seamlessly with classic Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir notes of dark cherry, cranberry and black licorice. This powerful and serious wine is decidedly dense on the palate and framed by alluring acidity and velvet tannins.

Wine Enthusiast – “Though light in the glass, this Alma Rosa Bentrock Vineyard Pinot Noir is aggressively aromatic, booming with joyous tones of cherry compote and candied rose. The palate zings with acidic energy, popping with fresh and fun flavors of hibiscus, cranberry and red currant, all dusted in white-pepper spice. ” (93 Pts)
Jeb Dunnuck – “The 2018 Alma Rosa Bentrock Vineyard Pinot Noir has lively notes of pomegranates, tart cherries, spring flowers, violets, and spice all emerge from the glass. Medium-bodied, with bright, juicy acidity, terrific balance, and outstanding length, it needs 2-3 years of bottle age and will drink beautifully through 2030.” (92+ Pts)
