2015 Loring Wine Company Garys’ Vineyard Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir

14.3% alc., pH 3.59, 150 cases, $54, screwcap. · Moderate reddish purple color in the glass. The nose is endowed with aromas of blueberry, black raspberry and a hint of nutty oak. Rich entry of black cherry, blueberry and black raspberry fruits, rich middle, and a rich finish. There is deft integration of oak and tannin on the palate, and the finish offers pleasing spiced cherry goodness and some length along with the richness. A trace of alcoholic warmth shows up on the back end as the wine warms in the glass. Score: 90. Reviewed October 30, 2016
