2016 Sandler Wine Company Pinot Noir Cuvée Marcy - USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (4/10/2018)
Darker than most Sandler Pinots. A nose of creamy blackberries with a hint of soft blueberries; Quite nice. Palate shows a refined styling typical of the Keefer vineyard. This is a ‘quiet’ and lovely Russian River pinot devoid of any cola notes.With vigorous swirl I get some sweet menthol like a C.Howards candy I do so like to find. Great balance on this; tannins are stealthy and acidity riding the cusp. Fresh and pure with a long and precise finish. Sandler has been and remains an amazing value in today’s market and it’s winemaker could very well be one of the most talented I am aware of, today Pure awesome. (93 pts.)
