OJAI Pinot Noir 'Fe Ciega' 2012

Ojai is able to purchase limited quantities of fruit from the Fe Ciega, farmed by winemaker Rick Longoria. This wine has a dark ruby color and shows more power then some of the other Pinot's I have tasted from Ojai in 2012. It has a sexy nose of red fruits, currant, white pepper, juniper berries, pencil shavings, sour cherry, earth and floral notes. Well-structured with racy acidity providing the excellent balance, given the big fruit notes. Smooth and delicious, this wine can be approached now with some decanting, however this is in incredibly age worthy Pinot and those who are willing to wait it out will be rewarded.
