Poppy

Monterey County Pinot Noir 2023

Elegant floral bouquet reminiscent of a good Gevrey-Chambertin … maybe even a little too flowery.

On second thought .. nah, just right.

Æolian Eola - Amity Hills Estate Pinot Noir 2022

Delectable Wine
9.4

The 2022 Pinot Noir Aeolian is darkly floral, as a mix of dried violets, lavender and incense forms an enticing bouquet. This is soothingly round and supple, showing a lick of salty minerality up front that perfectly offsets its ripe wild berry fruits. The 2022 leaves the palate stained in primary concentration, with a bitter blackberry tinge and edgy tannins that make for a lovely punctuation to the experience. The Aeolian hails from vines planted in 2001 at 700 feet in the higher elevations of Bethel Heights. (Eric Guido, Vinous, August 2024)

'Tri Appellation' Santa Barbara, Monterey, Sonoma County Pinot Noir 2022

I have previously rated this, but this is a different vintage so I’m rating it again. I consumed this in July 2024. 70% Monterey County, 19% Santa Barbara County, 11% Sonoma County. I think this is in the $25 range. Went really well with steak.  — a month ago

Nose: hint oak. Airy. Hint sea breeze. Lovely. White flowers.

Palate: lovely sweet oak. Sweet wood. Rich. Not over the top.
