Cult WIne Trio - Red White Red

2021 Wren Hop RRV Pinot Noir Double Clutch

"Medium ruby-purple in color, the 2021 Double Clutch Pinot Noir races out of the glass with vivacious notes of cranberry sauce, red cherries, and black raspberries followed by hints of dried Provence herbs and black pepper. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers exuberant red berry flavors with a lively line and fine-grained tannins, finishing with a cheeky lift." 95 Points The Wine Illuminati

Double clutching is deployed for power. Important for both fast & furious sideshows and fruit development during veraison. 

2022 Nid Tisse Hyde Vineyard Chardonnay

" The 2022 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard rolls out of the glass with expressive notes of baking bread, sea spray, and marzipan. With its classic Corton-like vivid perfume of citrus blossom, honeyed minerality, green almond, and a touch of charcoal. It shows more richness on the palate and is medium-bodied, has a beautifully layered mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and one great finish" 98 Points The Wine Illuminati

2022 ROAR Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir

The 2022 Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands is smoking good, with a beautiful, Chambolle-like perfume of redcurrants, spring flowers, spice, and hints of tea and forest floor. Medium-bodied, it has a supple, elegant texture, a more focused, savory mouthfeel, fine tannins, and a great finish. It's a classic, balanced, incredibly impressive Pinot Noir to drink over the coming 7-8 years, and I suspect it will evolve even longer."
