97 POINTS! Robert Mondavi’s grandsons do it AGAIN, with another stellar new pair of 19s! We continue to be amazed to get an allocation of these highly collectible pinot noirs at ALL, so those inclined toward serious, complex and deeply refined, long-lived styles (with huge press!) should be clicking as fast as possible.
The farming here is what sets these wines apart. You've probably heard the old adage that wine is made in the vineyard, and that is especially true with these phenomenal wines. The vineyards are farmed organically and meticulously, then the grapes are fermented whole cluster on native yeast and brought up in neutral barrel. Carlo has become one of the foremost experts on sustainable, organic, biodynamic and regenerative farming practices in the entire world. He has presented alongside wineries like DRC, BIllecart-Salmon, Chateau Lafite and Palmer, and Alvaro Palacios. Needless to say, these are wines with extreme respect for the environment and are on par with the best in the world.
