title: Babcock 2006 Ocean's Ghost Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)
description: Entirely off the estate, this polished young Pinot offers a complex mélange of flavors, in a balanced structure. The tastes of root beer, red currants, licorice, gingersnap cookie and sweet oak are frankly delicious. Fine now, and should peak by 2010, then hold for several more years.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Ocean's Ghost
