The green apple and menthol toast bouquet shows some unusual tobacco-like aromas that are usually associated with red wines. A sip reveals mint, apple and caramel flavors on a full, oaky frame. Nicely balanced and still tight, it ends with slightly subdued but persistent caramel and toast flavors. Previous vintages of this Santa Barbara classic have performed well—often better—after cellaring. Try in two years.
