"Here’s a smart way to get a Pinot Noir from Paul Lato, who makes this wine for the folks behind the Taste of the Sta. Rita Hills tasting room in Los Olivos. Smoothly integrated aromas of dark cherry, cola and oak are juicy and lovable. The rounded palate offers strawberry, rhubarb pie and chai spice." - Editors’ Choice." - Matt Kettman, 93WE
"The 2022 Pinot Noir showed nicely, with a charming, forward, nicely balanced style. Ripe red fruits (cherries, raspberries), spice, and floral notes all make an appearance in the glass, and it's medium-bodied, has a pure, elegant mouthfeel, and outstanding length. It's a beautiful effort. The 2022 comes from a mix of sites in the Sta. Rita Hills and Santa Maria Valley and was all destemmed and aged in 10% new French oak." -Jeb Dunnuck, 92JD
