Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2015

Solid balance and clear Dundee terroir. Oak a bit heavy handed for a Pinot of this light extraction. Will likely improve with time in the bottle. Brambly funk rn. — 6 years ago

Etude

Fiddlestix Vineyard Pinot Noir 2013

The Fiddlestix Vineyard is located at mile marker 7.28 on Santa Rosa Road in Lompoc, California, which is situated in the Sta. Rita Hills AVA. In the mid-90's Kathy Joseph of Fiddlehead Cellars, along with the viticultural icon Taz Steinhauer, acquired the 133-acre, former flower farm, across Santa Rosa Road from the Sanford & Benedict Vineyard, and in 1998 they planted 100 acres of Pinot Noir. Aside from the small amount earmarked for Fiddlehead's own production, much of the vineyard is contracted to other producers, including Ampelos, Ancien, Anglim, Arcadian, Bonaccorsi, Dragonette, Jonata, Ken Brown, Hartley-Ostini Hitching Post, Gainey, Ortman, Pali, Paul Lato, Prodigal, RN Estate, Rusack, Summerland, Tyler, Vogelzang, Wedell , and TAZ, not to mention Etude.

Opens with an austere earth note in a tone reminiscent of Barbaresco, and in the words of Miles Raymond, it's "tighter than a nun's ass." 45 minutes later, though, and it's singing and juicy. Black cherry, but not overripe, leads this medium bodied, pungent thinker, while a virtual greenhouse of floral shades help twist and shape its direction. Secondary dusty earth and walnut skin reveal the source of its austerity. True to its terroir, there's a tertiary layer of spice and rocks that provides the depth needed to go from good to great.

Domaine du Grand Tinel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2007

In a great place rn. Tannins have softened, balanced, soft mouthfeel. Too high alcohol for me (15%), but it carries it well and is enjoyable nonetheless. A straight forward wine but a nice pairing with house of prime rib — 6 years ago
