Three new choices from our friends at Landmark Vineyards. No introduction wanted:
2019 Landmark Vineyards Overlook Chardonnay Sonoma County – A textbook chardonnay, this wine blends vivid apple fruit, figs, and baking spice right into a slurry, earlier than dumping them right into a bucket of vanilla and delicate, buttery oak. Mellow and approachable on the seductive end, the place the spice notes meld with a punch of citrus to essentially kick issues up. A- / $27
2018 Landmark Vineyards Overlook Pinot Noir – This pinot hits the tongue with fairly a little bit of toughness, with layers of allspice and clove muscling out the fruit that feels prefer it should be hiding out someplace, albeit fairly far beneath the floor. Chewy and brambly, the wine by no means actually arrives on the palate, culminating in a considerably doughy, earthy expertise that one way or the other utterly misses out on offering the cherry- and cola-laden delights that Landmark’s pinots sometimes present. The end is especially inexperienced, unripe, and scattered. This classic simply doesn’t have it. B- / $25
2018 Landmark Vineyards Hop Kiln Property Pinot Noir Russian River Valley – Positively the winner of the 2 pinots right here, this can be a wealthy and classically RRV structured wine that’s loaded with cherry, cola, and tea leaf, with notes of vanilla including a silky and barely candy component to the end. Hints of clove, brambly blackberry, and a contact of prune add nuance with out ever threatening to overwhelm any of what’s come earlier than. Choose this one up. A- / $40
