2021 Occidental-Kistler Vineyards 'SWK Vineyard' Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

(97 Points)  --  (Wine Advocate)

The 2021 Pinot Noir SWK Vineyard has a haunting expression, with generous crunch and perfume. A core of raspberry and strawberry preserves opens to detailed accents of tangerine peel, wild fennel, bergamot and compelling conifer tones. The medium-bodied palate has a harmonious frame of silky tannins and shimmery acidity to support its concentrated flavors. Layer after layer of spicy red fruit unfurls as it flows through the mouth, and its complexity and vibrance call you back to the glass again and again. (EB) 97+
