Pinot Noir Clusters at Alma Rosa's El Jabalí Vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills

During a recent trip to Santa Barbara County, I stopped for a sip of Pinot Noir at Alma Rosa Winery & Vineyards located on Santa Rosa Road in the Sta. Rita Hills. Below are pictures from the El Jabalí Vineyard, a 7-acre vineyard planted to 3.5 acres of Pinot Noir and 3.5 acres of Chardonnay, which was first planted in 1983 along the gravel road that leads to the family ranch and tasting room.
