Monterey County Pinot Noir 2023

Fruit fwd and light. easy drinking. Solid through out the whole bottle. Was drunk un-aerated, out. — 12 days ago

Tatomer

Kick-On Ranch Riesling 2021

Probably one - if not - the best Cali Riesling. Smokey and rich, hint pine needles, touch band aid, plenty of acid. Quite austere. Atypical almost Chablis like. I do really like this! 13%. 125 cases made. — a month ago

Yeah, I’ll take Tatomer as the best, non-dessert styled Riesling producer in the new world.

Boen Wines

'Tri Appellation' Santa Barbara, Monterey, Sonoma County Pinot Noir 2021

Wagner did a nice job with this Pinot. Nice clarity in the glass. Notes of bright cherry, herbal notes, black tea and a ting of vanilla. The finish is more than ample. Maybe the bottle age adds a bit on the back end. Better than its RRV sister. — 12 days ago
