"The 2018 Alesia Pinot Noir Anderson Valley is sourced exclusively from the Bearwallow Vineyard, perennially making for one of the best value propositions for California Pinot Noir. The nose is harmonious and nuanced, balancing bright red fruits, autumn leaves and dried roses. The palate is medium-bodied with admirable richness and precision, concluding on an upright, tensile finish that's beginning to show the integration of its tannins. This is in a beautiful place and should continue to be for the next 4-5 years."
