2023 Busy Signal Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir
94
James Suckling
A focused, linear and relatively light red that offers bright red cherry and cranberry flavors, bracing acidity and moderate tannins. It's tight at first sip, then opens in the glass. Attractive for its restraint. Aged in 10% new oak barrels and other lightly used barrels, so the oak spice notes are subtle and supportive. Medium-bodied. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

bright ruby/magenta hue, the 2023 Pinot Noir Busy Signal has a great nose of spice and flowers, with wildflowers, wild herbs, a hint of oak spice, ripe berries, and a note of purple flowers. It’s pure and has good intensity, with a touch more of an earth-noted finish, but retains wonderful clarity. Drink now, but there is no rush, Enjoy it over the coming 8-10 years.

Focused aromas of raspberry and cherry meet with woodspice and toasted star anise on the nose of this bottling. Raspberry and boysenberry flavors are fresh on the palate, where a generous touch of toasty oak spice rounds out the finish.
