Keller Estate "La Cruz Vineyard" Petaluma Gap Pinot Noir 2021

Vin Chicago: 93+ Points

(10/2026) WOW! What a serious wind-swept Pinot here, with thick skins from their estate vineyard planted on clay-rich ancient seafloor. This informs an absolutely gorgeous structure underneath heaps of deep generous fruit, soil, floral and barrel tones. Dark cherry, strawberry-rhubarb is brought complexity from fresh rosemary, graphite and nutmeg. Give it air to unravel and you're rewarded by a wine that would be entirely fair at its $60 winery price! Authentic Pinot Noir that can suit richer fare.

(3/4/2024) Ripe and pure, with a lovely, caressing feel to its red and black cherry puree flavors. This glides through easily, offering flashes of black tea, iris and hibiscus on the sleek finish. Shows a kiss of oak, too, allowing the fruit to breathe. Drink now through 2030. 570 cases made.
