title: Babcock 2011 Slice of Heaven Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)
description: Was it the chilly vintage that made this wine so elusive? Tasted in the spring, it was oaky and jammy with raspberries and cherries, with the astringent tannins of green herb tea. Hard to tell where it's going, if anywhere, but it does have dryness and vital acidity in its favor.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Slice of Heaven
