Note di degustazione
The 2015 Pinot Noir Savoy Vineyard lives up to its name, offering a savory, complex style in its dried cherry and strawberry fruits, earth, and dried herb-laced aromas and flavors. It’s vibrant and fresh on the palate, with integrated acidity and ripe tannin. This is another estate making a distinctly vibrant, fresh style of wine that’s going to appeal to the Burgundy lovers out there. It’s an incredibly educational tasting going through all these different single vineyards from Ted Lemon and these are interesting, singular wines. As a whole, the 2015s shows slightly more oomph compared to the 2016s, yet both vintages have vibrant acidity and balanced profiles. As expected, quantities are slightly up in 2016.

The 2015 Pinot Noir Savoy Vineyard is fabulous. Highly nuanced with tremendous persistence, the 2015 is super-expressive today. Floral aromatics and bright, chiseled fruit find support from beams of tannin that extend the mid-palate and finish nicely. Hints of blood orange, rose petal and white pepper add brightness. What a gorgeous, supremely polished wine this is. (AG)

The 2015 Pinot Noir Savoy Vineyard is one of the more aromatic, nuanced wines in this range. Sweet floral notes and red-fleshed fruit notes are some of the signatures. Like all of the 2015s Littorai Pinots, the Savoy has a good bit of tannin, but here the wine's structure is decidedly on the medium-bodied side of things. The personality of this site is not as distorted in this vintage as some others are.

Littorai stands as one of California’s most quietly influential estates, defined by organic and biodynamic farming, site transparency, and a restrained, Burgundian sensibility.
