Another in the horizontal tasting, this one was much more fruity and juicy and ripe red, fruit, raspberries, sand, apples, definitely the chew your and more toothsome fruits, but still an easy drinking wine.

Top shelf central coast pinot. Ripe, but superb balance with earthy Burgundian vibes

My prior reviews still stand. I just like this producer. Nothing fancy, just nicely balanced Burgundian style Pinot.

Nice red fruit - cherry and strawberry - and contrasted with a mineral/ stone aspect. Well balanced.

Lucky to have sourced discounted Lutum Rita's Crown as the winery is no longer open. 93 point from Robert Parker and a steal at $35

Nice notes of fruit and strawberry with good minerality and a little earthiness at the finish
