I was disappointed by this ‘18 Pinot from Santa Maria valley as the Daou Reserve and Gary’s Vineyard Pinots really stood out. This one hasn’t integrated yet. Or maybe it was an off bottle. Initial rating 88 Pts. Revisiting 9/15/20 at Daou Vineyards and this wine is shining now. Nicely integrated. Upgraded to 90 Pts.
