2022 Talbott Pinot Noir Sleepy Hollow Santa Lucia Highlands

(92 Points) The 2022 Pinot Noir Sleepy Hollow Vineyard boasts a core of sweet fruit. Black licorice, black raspberry, sage and menthol open, leading to a voluptuous, generously proportioned mouthfeel with just a little edge to its tart acidity and bitter tannins. Lovely red/blue berry fruit wraps around the finish, closing with rose petals and white pepper traces. There’s quite a bit of complexity here. (BN)  Vinous, Review Date: 07/2024
