SWK Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Beautiful nose of red and black fruits with light wood, black tea, spices, light licorice, chocolates, herbs and tobacco leaf.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, chocolates, tobacco, light cedar, herbs, licorice, light earth and black pepper.

Long finish with soft tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a delicious Pinot Noir from Sonoma Coast. Rich and fruit forward. Elegant and complex. Nicely balanced and easy drinking, with a nice mouthfeel.

This 12-year-old Pinot Noir is drinking beautifully now, and drinking at its peak. Will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.

Wine Advocate 95 points.

Drinking beautifully by itself with a light chill.

100% Pinot Noir grapes were aged in (30% new) French Oak barrels for 12 months. Unfiltered and unfined.

14.1% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$120.

Littorai

Savoy Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

Slight nod over the Rivers-Marie 2013 Gioia (still very fruit driven) and Failla 2013 Occidental Ridge. The Littorai was the most evolved and Burgundian of the bunch. — 6 months ago
