Definitely aged by sight, nose, and palate. Med intensity on the nose which was dominated by dying fruit, mushrooms, and forest floor. There were some signs of sweet red fruit. The palate was mostly dried out with menthol notes dominating. There was structure still present but the finish had no lift and faded quickly. #littorai #sonomacoast #hirschvineyard #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

Much softer than the #leslarmes #cuvee with med intensity and a fragrant nose. The body was medium and shy with some green tannins poking out. Less fruit and more meaty, floral, and mineral notes. Med finish. #littorai #pinotnoir — 8 years ago

A very interesting #newworld #cheninblanc Fragrant but light on the nose. More complexity on the palate with notes of ripe yellow fruit and lanolin. Medium acid and short length. #littorai #sonomacoast #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

Heading to an #oldworld style with some characteristics of good quality #burgundy Med + intensity on the nose with sweet red and black fruit. Great complexity on the nose as well as the palate with delicious spice and mineral notes. The structure was firm but refined and higher alcohol was felt. The length was good. #littorai #sonomacoast #pinotnoir #california #newworld #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

Med to med + intensity on the nose with acai berry and black fruits dominating. The palate was well balanced with good tension and concentration. The fruit was very lively and had a spicy tropical spirit to it. The finish was enjoyable and had good length. #littorai #pinotnoir #andersonvalley #california #newworld #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

A young wine with great potential. The nose had great intensity and complexity. It was compact and concentrated. The palate followed the nose showing great complexity with perfectly ripened red and black fruit, herbs, spices, and a delicious savory quality. The structure was strong, well balanced and age worthy. Great length to the finish. #littorai #hirschvineyard #sonomacoast #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

On the restrained side with lower alcohol, higher acid, and less ripe fruit. Medium intensity on the nose. The fruit profile was interesting showing some candied notes. Fine length. #littorai #chardonnay #sonomacoast #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago
