Score 95/100 · Jeb Dunnuck, Aug 2022

Leading off the Pinot Noirs, the 2020 Pinot Noir Duende Gold Coast Vineyard comes from Santa Maria and was destemmed and spent 12 months in 50% new barrels. Its medium ruby hue is followed by a big, boisterous bouquet of ripe strawberries, framboise, spring flowers, and sappy herbs. This fruit-loaded, sexy, forward, seamless effort is one of the more approachable and ready-to-go in the lineup, yet it still has good acidity as well as tannins.

Gorgeous aromas of strawberries, flowers, chanterelle mushrooms and earth. Full-bodied with soft, velvety tannins. Bright and spicy. This is non-grafted Martini Clone. Love the finish on this. Unique. Drink or hold.
