Sea Smoke Ten 2022 Pinot Noir Santa Rita Hills

A darkly colored and substantial Pinot Noir, Sea Smoke Ten unfolds slowly in the glass, revealing layers of dark plum, black cherry, and currants, accented by cedar and a touch of earthiness. Its rich texture is beautifully balanced, leading to a firm yet velvety finish.

Brooding and intense, Ten opens with aromas of black tea, blackberry, and orange rind, followed by an intricate mix of savory spices and a hint of jasmine. The wine’s firm, mature tannins signal its remarkable aging potential, culminating in a long, luxurious finish.

Crafted from ten distinct Pinot Noir clones—hence its name—our vines flourish on south-facing hillside bluffs in transition zones with rich clay soils, where Pinot Noir reaches its peak expression. We farm organically and biodynamically, ensuring harmony between the land, our team, and those who enjoy our wines.

Sea Smoke’s rare blend of sun, fog, soil, and meticulous farming yields wines of profound depth, elegance, and character.
