Bien Nacido Vineyard Syrah

Dark ruby color. Smell of ripe plum, spices. Crushed plum lead the palate, ripe berries jam with strong notion of pepper. It comes pretty hot at almost 16% and you can taste it. — a month ago

Bien Nacido Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017

Fun wine to try with some age. Very light color. A bit of tar. Some doodoo. // edit: changing my tune on this one. After a lot of air and even into second day, this has turned into a real gem. Smoky smooth restrained bright long. — 3 months ago

Block 43 Bien Nacido Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

2020 vintage. Last tasted 7.3.24 (9.3) and 7.23.24 (9.3). Still weird mix of pretty and ugly/grounded and flighty with medium/medium-heavy body but it works with the journey and the finish. 9.3.25. — 7 months ago

Bien Nacido Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017

We had the 2017 Vintage on 1/3/26. A fantastic Pinot Noir from Santa Barbara. An earthy bouquet with subtle red fruit. Raspberry, strawberry, clove, mushroom and baking spice on the palate. Nice mouthfeel to this Medium bodied, well balanced and still New World wine. Of all the wines we had on our May, 2025 trip to SB, this was the best. We bought this at the winery. — 3 months ago

Bien Nacido Hillside Estate Syrah 1995

Stunning, raspberry, leather, and white pepper more reminiscent of Cote Rotie than California. Great depth, I’m crushed that this is my last bottle. — 3 months ago
