One of the best I sell that has somewhat of a cult following. It’s one of those wines that seems so familiar but is made from an odd grape in an odd place. But man does it work. Nose is floral and lifted. Gorgeous tiny berry mountain alpine fruit. It’s intense. Deep and grapey initially but it’s got substance. Incredibly clear and vivid minerals. Just arresting and original aromas. Superb concentration and what an awesome velvety texture. Superb depth and freshness. Stunning clarity and purity. Velvety tannins. What a showing. Best bottle of Rutissons I’ve ever had. — 3 years ago

Las Alturas' Spanish for 'the heights', a fitting name, this vineyard located on one of the highest grape-growing benches in the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA. 4th gen Winemaker Joseph J. Wagner from a family with farming and winemaking roots in Napa since 1906. Met Joe several times. Deep Ruby (darkest Pinot I have come across, almost looks like a Cab). Rich berry flavors with cedar, spice and vanilla. Lingering ending with sweet oak notes. Consistent quality Nice! A Fav! — 4 years ago

Glad to see Alpine here. This is a great DIPA, where the hops are nicely balanced by the earth and Grassy tones, with a hint of citrus on the front. Long lasting finish, great carbonation. — 8 years ago

I still love this Pinot but the 2011 was amazing I drank at least a case. It does not have the same feel seems more heavy with darker fruit notes. — 7 years ago

One the best single IPA's in the world, Amarillo and Simco hops, that's all!!! But Awesome, Alpine one the best breweries in the USA, second only to Russian River, but the brewery does not get the just praise they truly deserve, Outstanding, my second favorite single IPA, Alpine's Nelson is first, only wish more people knew about this great beer and brewery — 9 years ago
