Jeb Dunnuck, 91 points:
Moving to the Pinot Noirs, the 2018 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills was mostly destemmed and brought up in 29% new French oak. It has a beautiful bouquet of spiced cherry and raspberry fruits as well as subtle forest floor and spice notes, medium body, a kiss of background oak, and a classy finish. Drink this fruit-loaded, balanced, complex effort over the coming 3-5 years. It's a great value.
