Nice nose with red cherry notes, strawberries, a hint of baking spices, a bit of flowers, and savory. Good acidity with tart red cherries, more strawberries, cinnamon, and blood orange. Lovely finish. This was quite impressive. Tart and fruit driven, yet with good weight on the palate. Great CA pinot and drinking well now but I’m sure it will continue to age well.

It happens. One of my favorite California Pinot producers, Horribly corked. Smelled it as soon as it was opened. Hoped for a miracle and let it sit open for 30 minutes. Even worse. Down the drain it went.

Fantastic. Learning that Littorai needs serious time - this was so much more developed and integrated than my last bottle. Full spectrum fruit, blackberry, strawberry, cranberry, baking spice. Excellent now on two nights.

Popped and poured. Drank over 3 hours. Purchased upon release. A pleasant surprise. Very well balanced. Cherry profile with a tinge of strawberry. These should drink well for 5+ years. At most I would use a short decant.
