  9/1/2021 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 94 Points

  Retail $44. Clones: Pommard, 115, and 777. This is the last year that the Pommard was sourced (bought from another vineyard—starting in 2019 it all comes from the Bells Up vineyard, and by 2022 Bells Up will be “Pinot independent” as the 115 and 777 will also come from the estate). Dave and Sara are very conscious to the Pinot fatigue in the Valley and they want to make something a bit different. Dave, when making the wine, sees them more as shapes and “hears something different” from the wines. Plum here more than cherry with plenty of spice on the nose. The black cherry really comes through on the palate, though with great tartness and intensity. Really fantastic. Outstanding. 94 Points.
