the ramal vineyard has been source to a fine series of buena vista pinot noirs. farrell has captured another interpretation of its terroir, not quite as lush or ripe, but firm in acid-inspired cherries and licorice, with a subtle veneer of smoky oak. it's a dry, crisp young wine, well-structured, a good partner for upscale fare such as lamb chops.
