$78.00Melville 2023 "Block M" Pinot Noir, Santa Rita Hills
98 Points
One of our favorite Pinot Noir producers from Santa Barbara. Greg Brewer's touch with Pinot should be discovered by all Pinotphiles! Block M is their top of the line Pinot. Limited.
98 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Fermented with 80% whole clusters and aged in neutral wood, the Melville 2023 Pinot Noir Block M sees the highest stem inclusion in the lineup. Ruby/plum in hue, it offers black raspberries, spice, rose petals, and damp underbrush, with beautifully integrated stems. Medium-bodied and vibrant, it has a seamless texture, sound underlying structure, and a gorgeous finish. This might be the finest Pinot Noir I've tasted from Melville. While far from unapproachable today, it will benefit from a year or two in bottle and drink well through 2038. Drink 2026-2038."
100% of the fruit is from the winery's Santa Rita Hills Estate vineyard.
