Tyler La Encantada Pinot Noir 2021

The 2021 Pinot Noir La Encantada Vineyard is scented of cranberry sauce and raspberry preserves with nuances of peppercorn, charcuterie, earth and floral perfume. The medium-bodied palate is chalky and fresh with crunchy, bitters-laced fruit and a long, mineral-driven finish. It unfurls dramatically with time in the glass and will benefit from 3-5 years in bottle. Drink date: 2025-2040. Score – 94. (Erin Brooks, robertparker.com, Dec. 29, 2023)
