Always a treat. Masterfully blended and that stands out furthermore when tasted beside the single vineyard Central and Western wines. A classic.
Pardon the 2018 bottle pic, one of the downsides of pre-release samples. The struggle is real. These Pinots will be officially hitting the ground in mid-May.
Some black fruit, dark cherry and dried Mediterranean herbs get the ball rolling. There is a yin and yang effect that pulls at you and sweet talks all at the same time. A restrained power here shows its hand. And tension! Even after a couple of days it was holding on tight but it grows on you. Still, there's a lovely density before a drying finish. This will age well. Big love.
