Tua Rita

Giusto di Notri Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2012

Holy smokes. Deep dark brooding and needed airtime. This wine was dense and paired well with steak but wow it could’ve used a 2 hour decant to open up. — a month ago

Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay 2021

9.1

The 2021 Chardonnay (Sta. Rita Hills) is terrific. Citrus confit, white flowers, almond, chamomile and dried herbs all run through this super-expressive Chardonnay. There's a touch of phenolic intensity, along with a kiss of reduction, that add character. Almost all of this fruit is now estate. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2023)

Ten Estate Vineyard Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir

Lovely! Light tobacco on the nose. Strawberries on the front — medium tannic structure that’s silky into the finish — a light toasting with mineral high notes that completes with slightly sour zing on the finish to knock us out of our complacency. — 24 days ago

The 2021 Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills) is such a beautiful wine. The appellation Pinot is often one of my favorite wines in this range, as it is again this year. The purity and exuberance of this fruit is compelling. Floral and savory nuances develop in the glass, but earlier bottling and a bit less whole cluster influence work well to accentuate the textural presence and intensity of the fruit. This is such a gorgeous wine. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2023)

Clos Pepe Estate

Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2014

This is Clos Pepe’s Dark Side bottling, which they only made a few times. What an excellent PN, loaded with dark cherries, other dark fruits and some cola. There was a little left in the decanter about an hour or so after dinner and the fruit was gone as well as the long sweet finish. I had opened and decanted it about an hour before dinner and maybe that was too much time but got through dinner fine. — 17 days ago

Absolutely delicious! Perfect balance of fruit and acidity. And a wonderful body and richness. Definitely worth getting again. — a month ago

Domaine de la Côte

Bloom's Field Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir

Strawberries, eucalyptus and plums on the nose, maybe even a lil crushed raspberry on a medium body, with a ruby core with purple hues through the edges. Old world styled, gripping tannins and dry, with prominent eucalyptus, ripe plum, cigar smoke, and tart cranberries and maybe even a lil tar. Definitely could use some time to soften, but still beautiful! — 2 days ago

Southing Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir

Prefer 10 but this delivery was sooner. Still love. Rather drink this and have frozen pizza than go out and have marked up wine. Beautiful Pinot noir. Soft cherry flowers. Not tart. Enjoyed. — 2 days ago
