2018 Brewer-Clifton Machado Pinot Noir Sta Rita Hills

(95 Points  ---   Wine Advocate)

The 2018 Pinot Noir Machado has a medium ruby color and deep, layered aromas of pure violet, garrigue, laurel, aniseed and forest floor, seamlessly accenting a core of black and red berries. The palate is medium-bodied with loads of lift and silkiness, elegantly fruited and with a long, ethereal finish. (EB)  Review Date: 10/2020
