Country: US / Durell Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Loring Wine Company / Sonoma Coast
Of Loring’s dozen single-vineyard Pinots released this season, this is one of the softest, sweetest and simplest. It’s pretty good, with polished cherry pie filling, cola, carob, licorice and spice flavors. But it could have a firmer structure.
