Label states: “One of 1656 bottles from the finest vineyards in Santa Rita Hills.” This wine has a sophistication and polish that transcends the typical offerings from Tantara, not that Tantara isn’t entertaining for its other offerings–it just starts from there and keeps going.  Basically it is a blend of several sources of “Reserve” quality Pinot Noir from the Santa Rita Hills region– its a different spin than a typical “Reserve” which would be vineyard specific. Long finish, generous palate, good balance–fruit to acidity, decently integrated tannins even at this ‘young age’. There is enough structure for a 5-7 year hold, but why wait when its this good now. Enjoy one now, keep a few bottles for later. Celebrate the blend. WB 92-93+
