Review
Aromas explode out of the glass of cranberry, cherry, rhubarb, vanilla, violets and wild herbs. The palate is fresh with bright acidity, fresh juicy berries and sweet spices. The purity of fruit on this wine really stands out, front and center. The mid-palate has good weight and richness with a simple yet refreshing finish. The grapes from this bottle are sourced exclusively from Three Sticks owned vineyards of Durell, Gap's Crown and Deodora. The grapes they don't sell to Premium wineries of Kosta Brown, Patz and Hall etc. (who price it between $100-200) will be used to produce Head High. Basically, it is the best value Pinot Noir below $25 which exists. Fact.
