Note di degustazione
The 2014 Pinot Noir Thieriot Vineyard Estate is arguably the most reticent of the Littorai 2014s. There is good energy and freshness, but the Thieriot is not as well put together as it was last year. My impression is that the 2014 is still going through a phase of bottle shock. I tasted two bottles, neither of which was as expressive or pure as this wine has shown in the past.

Medium ruby-purple colored, the 2014 Pinot Noir B.A. Thieriot Vineyard has a seriously peppery nose with baking spice layers and notes of kirsch, black raspberries and forest floor. Light to medium-bodied, it fills the mouth with pepper and spice flavors, with a chewy backbone and long finish. 233 cases were made.
The 2014 Pinot Noir Thieriot Vineyard Estate is a real head-turner. Deep, dense and explosive - with a huge core of dark red and purplish fruit - the 2014 possesses superb intensity. It is a real feeling of weight allied to gorgeous aromatic lift that makes the Thieriot such a compelling wine. Expressive floral and saline notes shape the long, beautifully sculpted finish. Today, the Thieriot is superb. I tasted the 2014 from tank prior to bottling.

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