Not as intense as the Roar but very good. Some cola, dark fruits and more. — 15 days ago

A.P. Vin

Clos Pepe Vineyard Pinot Noir 2009

Wes Hagen, 20 year veteran wine maker at Clos Pepe Vineyard, joined our group and gave us a master class in Santa Barbara pinot noir. We tried 11 PNs from 2004-2010, made by Loring, AP Vin, Sandler, Siduri, and Brewer-Clifton. This AP Vin was my #2 although the group rates it closer to the middle of the pack. No longer producing unfortunately… — 10 months ago

Pali Wine Co.

Cargasacchi Vineyard Pinot Noir 2005

Another Pinot I’ve had several btls of and somehow not yet rated….love this and I’m not sure I’ve had a wine this old in better shape…for that I credit the twist off cap. Very sparkly on opening but mellows quickly, excellent cherry fruit, just a touch acidic on the back end. I think another Loring connected producer — 2 years ago

Kistler

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2018

Didn’t know Kistler was in the Pinot business until this showed up from WB…and while a very good one, not up to Kistler’s level in Chardonnay…very nicely fruit forward, but a little too sparkly at the front and a little too wooden at the back. Solid but not exceptional….falls short of Loring & Testarrossa — a year ago

Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir 2009

Loved the ‘09 and a fan of Shea. This was near the best of both. Bright red fruit. No tannin. Nothing not to like. Would buy a case of it if I could find it. — 2 years ago
