Littorai, Savoy Pinot Noir, 2016, California

Out of stock

“Where both 2014 and 2015 were structured bottlings at Savoy, this returns to a more elegant expression and can be consumed very young as well as having very good aging potential. Aromatically it is more influenced by the whole clusters in the fermentation as expressed through more herbal, spicy tones followed by rhubarb, blood orange, allspice and violets. On the palate it is a very energetic wine, lovely acidity, very fine and delicate tannins, and great precision on the finish.” Producer’s Notes

  • Joseph Newman

    I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.

    3.8 stars with more aging potential.

    A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.

    On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

    This amazing powerhouse from Ribera del Duero. Tinto Pesquera Reserva 2012 - Bodegas Alejandro Fernández. Decanting is advised 👌🍷 delicious cherry, vanilla, leather and cederbox with cigars. Milk chocolat, forrest floor, laurel. Great lenght and depth Amazing wine!

  • Gregor Jagermeister

    90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.

    Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
