Tyler La Rinconada Pinot Noir 2021

The 2021 Pinot Noir La Rinconada Vineyard, vinified entirely with whole clusters, features scents of raspberry, pomegranate, black tea leaves, blood orange and Angostura bitters, revealing earthy accents as it spends time in the glass. The medium-bodied palate is chalky and tense, with a concentrated core of alluringly herbal fruit and a long, ethereal finish. It will benefit from 3-5 years in bottle. Drink date: 2025-2040. Score – 94+. (Erin Brooks, robertparker.com, Dec. 29, 2023)
