The most generous flavor profile, with licorice and spices atop the black fruits. But finely textured

After Red Cars Platt Vineyard this was very disappointing. All the littorai wines were great it's just that they were not as good as the other wines at the tasting.

Well made Pinot--of course. Nice acidity, bright red fruit and pleasant, gripping tannins on the finish. Good stuff. Accessible at this stage--90 minutes open before drinking.

For my money, year in year out the Best Pinot produced in California, I love the depth and complexity without overt oak, balanced with great weight, love it!

Amazing. When I opened it, it was tight but so smooth, lithe and delicious from mouthful to finish. As it opened it’s now in its glory. Expressive nose, tons of cascading bursting cranberry, super long finish and terrific balance of fruit and acidity. I’m very impressed as it’s light in color, lithe and ethereal as Pinot should be but has new world characteristics that I typically see in denser Californian pinots.

Red Cherry, licorice, & earth on the nose. Tart cherry, earthy licorice root, plum & long mineral finish. Well made.
