2009 Hug Cellars Pinot Noir Rancho Ontiveros Santa Maria Valley


I keep working through my remaining stash of Augie Hug's wine. This one has held up remarkably well. A bright cherry and spice nose. Bright, clear tasting strawberry and cherry fruit, spice notes. Nice acidity, dusty tannins, good balance. A soft, moderately long finish. Drinking nicely now and I'd guess for the next two years or so. B+
