2019 Foxen Pinot Noir Julia's Vineyard Santa Maria Valley

(94 points) "There’s a gamy element that extends across much of this Foxen vintage, and it works very well in certain bottlings like this one, which is light in hue but loaded on the nose with roasted berry and porcini aromas. There’s a sappy thyme and chaparral-scrub flavor to the palate, elevating the freshly smashed strawberry and cranberry core." Wine Enthusiast
