Arnot-Roberts Pinot Noir Legan Vineyard 2019

Red
Santa Cruz Mountains, United States

Red fruit and spice show promise, but jagged tannins and hollow mid-palate undermine the effort. The whole cluster treatment adds an herbal edge that feels more distracting than complex. This final harvest from the sold vineyard lacks the depth and integration expected from Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot.

Arnot-Roberts

Arnot-Roberts makes some of California's most restrained, site-specific wines, working with obscure varieties and old-vine material across a wide range of appellations well outside the Napa mainstream.
