Anderson Valley, tucked into the cool coastal reaches of California, gives Pinot Noir the kind of long, unhurried ripening that keeps fruit bright and lifted. This 2019 from Long Meadow Ranch is a pale, cherry-pink expression of the grape, medium-bodied and built more for freshness than weight.
It opens with a spicy edge, elderflower and tarragon threaded through lemon and lime pith, all of it framing a core of musk melon. The palate is floral and juicy, rounded without going soft, and it finishes long and buoyant. A charming pour, and an easy one to keep reaching for.
