Phinney says:
A neon cardinal core with a tinge of purple, the 2019 l’usine Annapolis Ridge Vineyard is the boldest of the three wines. In the glass, the wine moves a tick slower than expected with ripe black cherry, blueberry, fresh California oregano and other red fruits. With prominent weight, the palate is rife with cranberry, strawberry, orange peel and even a touch of black plum in the resinous mid-palate. Gorgeously textured with a hint of tannin, the acidity from the Sonoma Coast brings the wine to an effortless close of power.
An elite Sonoma Coast Pinot to challenge Kistler, Occidental, Wayfarer or anybody.
The lowest price you’ll find for ANY Annapolis Ridge Pinot Noir from any winery, by the way, is $125. And that one doesn’t hold a candle to this.
