Community Tasting Note

Saturday, June 6, 2020 - My last bottle, on purpose because these entry-level Lorings do not seem to age well. Consistent with previous note:
This bottle had a lot of earth, almost a funky character. I think of Loring as a full-on fruit modern producer, and this bottle does not represent that mindset. It's actually more in my wheel-house of a balanced earthy pinot. If I were to guess, and it's only a guess, I think these have big fruit initially that fade relatively quickly.
I bought a case of their 2015 San Mateo pinot noir, and they are dying or dead at this point in time. Regardless, for this wine, same score as last bottle, very good, not exceptional. This is an $18 pinot noir, and that's money well spent.
