Note di degustazione
The 2022 Pinot Noir La Côte opens with a composed, harmonious nose that only hints at the concentration and weightless density found within, combining bright, high-toned fruit aromas with profound, grounded, savory flourishes. The palate is striking in its layered, nearly opulent power, which admirably manages impressive richness without losing focus, drive or allure. The finish is similarly multidimensional and expansive, wrapping up the wine with bright acidity and precise, fine-grained, powdery tannins. This wine never stopped morphing and expanding in the glass, both in aromatic fidelity and in the dimension of the finish, suggesting this has plenty of potential in the cellar.

The 2022 Pinot Noir La Côte is the most intensely savory and mineral of the Pinots here. In that sense, it offers an extremely vivid expression of the rugged, windswept nature of this site on the far western edge of the Sta. Rita Hills. Crushed rocks, dried herbs, lavender, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco and red cherry fruit abound. There is a feeling of youthful austerity to La Côte that will appeal most to readers who enjoy taut, sinewy Pinots.
