2019 Wayfarer Wayfarer Estate Vineyard WF2 Fort Ross-Seaview Pinot Noir

14.5% alc., 600 cases, $45. The value bottling from Wayfarer. Inaugural vintage. Aged 10 months in 30% new French oak barrels. · Moderate garnet color in the glass. I drank a glass at Willi’s Seafood Restaurant in Healdsburg in mid-July ($18) and was impressed. Welcoming aromas of boysenberry and spice followed by mid-weight flavors that echoed the nose. A refreshing acid spine and suede tannins add up to immediate drinkability. A high-quality, everyday Pinot Noir. Score: 92. Reviewed August 1, 2021
