Au Bon Climat Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir 2024
Classic Burgundy technique, transplanted to the Santa Barbara hills by one of California's most influential winemakers.
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Pinot Noir, a blend of five vineyards across the Santa Maria Valley and Santa Barbara County appellations, California.
Taste Profile: The 2023 fruit ripened slowly and evenly, giving a nose loaded with dark fruit: a smoky, plummy note arrives first, followed by fresher strawberry and cherry aromas. Deep ruby in colour, foretelling a mouth-filling intensity, this is a rich and satisfying wine even at this young age.
Winemaking Process: Aged for 10 months in French oak barrels, about 10% new.
Winemaker: Au Bon Climat was founded in 1982 by Jim Clendenen and Adam Tolmach, working out of a converted dairy barn at Los Alamos Vineyard in the early days of the Santa Barbara wine industry. Clendenen, who fell for wine during a junior year abroad in Burgundy and Champagne, became sole proprietor and winemaker after Tolmach's departure in 1990 and spent decades building Au Bon Climat's reputation for Burgundian-style Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, earning Winemaker of the Year honours from the Los Angeles Times and Food & Wine along the way. Since his death in 2021, the winery's longtime team has carried his vision forward, with his children Isabelle and Knox now involved in marketing and the cellar.
