Bright yellow gold. Inviting nose of dried pineapple and yellow flowers. Firm acidity leads the medium full palate which confirms the nose and adds French oak inspired vanilla, white pepper and a hint of honeyed green apple. Oaky, pome-y notes continue on the moderate finish. A rare, Burgundian style Chardonnay from Carneros which makes it not quite what one would expect from the appellation (especially if one is a Rombauer or Lloyd drinker), but an excellent accompaniment to a wide range of heartier white wine fare. Drink now through 2027. — 2 years ago

An excellent wine brought to the BYO Indian Restaurant in Cairns. Close to the WOTN, thanks Lindsay. Coriole’s Lloyd Shiraz has always been a rich wonderful full bodied expression of old vine McLaren Vale fruit. Red and black fruits with chocolate and supple fluid tannins. From an excellent vintage. Great stuff. — 5 years ago

Lloyd by Robert Lloyd – Pinot Noir – 2019
Sta. Rita Hills AVA – Santa Barbara County – USA 🇺🇸

Overview
100% Pinot Noir from the cool, wind-swept Sta. Rita Hills, known for producing concentrated, intensely flavored wines. This vintage leans toward a richer, more powerful expression while maintaining varietal character.

Aromas & Flavors
Ripe red and black berries, cherry compote, cedar, vanilla, and baking spices with a touch of clove and cola.

Mouthfeel
Fuller-bodied for Pinot Noir with warm fruit, medium acidity, and firm, well-structured tannins. Generous but balanced, with a lingering spicy finish.

Food Pairings
Grilled salmon, pork tenderloin, duck breast, mushroom pizza, or truffle pasta.

Verdict
A bold, flavorful Sta. Rita Hills Pinot with depth, warmth, and structure. Ideal for those who enjoy a richer, more extracted style without losing elegance.

Did You Know?
Sta. Rita Hills is one of California’s most acclaimed Pinot regions, thanks to maritime winds that slow ripening and concentrate flavor, a key reason why the AVA consistently produces high-impact, age-worthy Pinots. — 7 months ago

Originally I passed on this wine, it was offered to me and I thought it was just a cute label. Frankly it’s fitting that the imagery deals with school because I failed that test. Talk about smooth, you could be playing poker with Paul Newman while listening to the Rat Pack wearing a leather jacket like Steve McQueen and you would approach this level of smooth and cool. Hardly to no tannins or overwhelming acid but fresh. Low in alcohol, or at least it tastes like it, but just wonderful warm and inviting fruit without being too jammy or over ripe. A small hint of vanilla and just enough sweet spices to keep things interesting. Smells of deep ruby, almost purple fruit. You know that girl that wears sweats to class everyday and later ends up being a runway model? Tasting this is her email saying she always thought you were cute. — 8 years ago

Fruit-forward and spicy Syrah in the American style. Fruity but elegant. Slightly sweet fruit to start followed by an astringent finish. Good for spicy meat dishes. — 7 months ago

Handcrafted with the assistance of Lloyd Matthews (of Nine Suns and formerly Futo), the 2021 is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and defined by black fruit, blue eucalyptus, graphite, licorice, smoldering earth, and leather. — 2 years ago

When it comes to the rich style, this hits all the good feelies. Rob Lloyd brings balance to acid with body. New world, but done the RIGHT way. Stop the snobbishness at the door. It’s immediate gratification and just plain good — 4 years ago
