Likes this wine:

Monday, December 7, 2015 - Dark garnet color. Breathed in glasses around an hour before serving. Anthill Pinots show whole cluster spice & an approachability that is always refreshing. Beautiful balance of spiced red fruit, bright acid & supple tannin. Medium bodied & wonderfully fresh with bright acidity adding textural notes. High toned berries lead to tart cherry accented with tea-like aromatics. Hauntingly complex.

Finessed & driven as much by the structure as it is the fruit creating excellent tension on the palate. The definition & character shown in these different vineyards are evidence of the work here as the finished wines articulate a specific vision of Pinot Noir in California. There is fruit driving the wine, but there are so many other aspects to these wines defining both house style and terroir. I love what they do.
