Chalone Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021

Rose petal, pomegranate and an herbal blast of oregano and marjoram show on the nose of this bottling from an historic producer in the mountains east of Salinas. The palate is snappy in acidity with plenty of herbal influence, offering thyme-flecked strawberry-sauce flavors. Score – 92. (Matt Kettman, Wine Enthusiast, March 1, 2023)
