WTN: Teu Many Options

by Jenise » Sat Nov 23, 2019 5:40 pm

2015 Teutonic Wine Company Pinot Noir Oregon Pinot Noir Crow Valley Vineyard Willamette Valley
Very shy at first, no nose, but a one-hour decant released everything. Pleasant light bodied cherry notes with a very light herbaceousness. Not sure about its aging potential, but with this kind of acidity it likely has a lot of time left.

2015 Liquid Farm Pinot Noir SRH Radian & Sanford & Benedict Sta. Rita Hills
Completely agree with Fred O, so quoting: "transparent violet color. Nose herbal, earthy. Palate light red fruits, silky depth; rocky minerals on the finish with very faintly chalky tannins. High acidity. Nice structure to this, drinking well now but curious to see how this does with a few more years. 92 pts with upside."

2014 Clos Pepe Estate Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills
Identical to April's bottle. On cruise, and will hold here for a few years.

I have only had Chardonnay from Liquid Farm. It was good, but did not move me.

This was a pinot but the chardonnays can be terrific. As with all else in California, though, stick with the cooler vintages. If you can fine one.
