2012 Littorai Pinot Noir Mays Canyon - USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (1/26/2018)
Popped and poured, and no need for aeration, as this was all about red fruit and floral tones from the word go. There was ample depth of fruit, solid acidity, and excellent length. Fun to drink now, it seemed to have several years ahead of it. Best with aromatic, but not too rich dishes.

I've drunk more Littorai chard than pn, but both impress. But have gotten pricey.
But I think for title you should have had a Willi Sch. kab as a starter.
