12/28/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsSad to see the last of these disappear from my cellar as it truly is a very enjoyable Pinot. Very bittersweet as the good folks at Holdredge are winding down their two decade plus run for their next adventure. Although I have not met them face to face, I quickly connected with their wines and personalities. Those who know me know I was a big fan of WesMar. When they decided to stop making wine after the 2019 vintage, I wondered where I would ever find another small production, outstanding Pinot winemaking husband and wife team. Enter John and Carri and my introduction to Holdredge wines. My only regret is not stumbling upon them sooner. This Pinot was a welcome addition to the wines I have from them. Dark blackberry notes lifted by black cherry flavors. With a savory streak. A couple of chapters ending. |

12/25/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsAnother great offering for Christmas dinner with extended family. Proof you can serve an excellent Pinot at a very reasonable price point to satisfy both Pinot fanatics as well as the less discerning drinkers during the holiday feast. This show beautiful fruit with dark cherry and blackberry flavors. Nice dark core. A wonderful QPR and a winner to all those present. |

2011 Holdredge Pinot Noir Selection MassaleRussian River Valley more |
12/28/2023 - klezman wrote: NRThis was excellent in all respects. It may have been big and juicy when it was fresh, but with a dozen years of age it's drinking very well. Nicely balanced fruit and earth, plenty of acidity, nothing out of place, moderately long finish. Nice pickup on a cheap(ish) auction. |

12/24/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsAnother winner on Christmas Eve with dark fruit and great mouthfeel. Blackberry and black cherry notes that are delivered on a very smooth, integrated entry. A touch of savory notes adds a bit of complexity and interest. This emerged as one of my Holdredge favorites over the course of time. Medium body is perfect for full enjoyment of this Pinot. |

2021 Holdredge Pinot Noir Three Sisters VineyardSonoma Coast more |
12/12/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsGaining some more interest and familiarity with this vineyard source. Recently had a Martinelli Pinot from this vineyard that was outstanding. This offering by Holdredge is equally alluring. Mid-weight with great texture and tasty dark cherry flavors. Rolls seamlessly over the palate and lingers on the finish. |

11/8/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsI vowed to wait a bit prior to cracking open another bottle of this. Well not that long as it turns out. I will say this was improved and impressive, but still will integrate further. I do feel the vineyard pedigree is definitely there. Enjoy it now or exhibit more patience than I clearly could. |

11/6/2023 - wetlandwino wrote: 92 pointsAn excellent California Pinot Noir. However, it still needs a few more years before it becomes a balanced wine. We compared this wine with a 2009 Marcassin, a 2018 Paul Hobbs, and a 2021 Whitehall Lane. The Marcassin was the superior wine, with the Holdredge and Whitehall Lane vying for second place. |

10/16/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsA stellar Pinot from Holdredge. Saralee is one of my favorite offerings from them. Perfumed dark fruit, deep color, but amazingly fresh and lively with medium weight. Full of flavor and great texture. Some potpourri aromas and a plethora of diverse flavors the roll across the palate. A great value and a commendable Pinot. |

10/9/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 93 pointsLast one of these in my cellar and I have to say I wish the Holdredge gang was not hanging it up based upon how much I have enjoyed this particular wine. It has an earthy base with great dark fruit with a nice, smooth palate attack. It has flavor and character that delivers. Carri and John have produced such great Pinot in the time I have been a fan. I only wish our paths had crossed earlier. |

10/2/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsI think this has emerged as one of my top two favorites from Holdredge. It has a nice dark fruit foundation and appearance but has a nice weight and flavor profile. Some savory and earthy elements as well. Just a very easy bottle to enjoy and drink. I wish I had found this husband and wife team earlier in my Pinot explorations, as they are winding down their business after a very long and impressive run. |

2019 Holdredge Pinot Noir Steiner-DrystackSonoma Mountain more |
9/11/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir Likes this wine: 92 pointsWhile there has been slight inconsistencies bottle to bottle of this- which likely was attributable to the state of my palate any given night, this has been my favorite Pinot from the good folks at Holdredge. It has dark red fruit with a sense of earth and place. So easy to drink and usually far above the price point. Great flavor, quality and a bargain is a winning combination. Unfortunately they are winding down their business and this wine will not be available moving forward. All the more reason to savor every drop. |
