Lot 464
2022 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

750ml

$90/bottle under the original label

A wine that routinely commands scores in the mid-to-high 90s from leading writers and publications, Lot 464 is a 100% single-vineyard Pinot Noir – a signature release of a distinguished family-run operation that has called Sonoma home since the early 1900s. A quick search online shows pricing of over $100/bottle at select retailers.

Pouring a beautiful ruby hue into the glass, this Sonoma stunner erupts with seductive aromatics of raspberry, spice, cinnamon, and potpourri. The sensory journey continues on the palate with an interplay of raspberry compote, tobacco leaves, and dried herbs buoyed by deftly balanced acidity. Gracefully transitioning into a thoroughly dry finish exquisitely framed by small, grippy tannins, a secondary wave of iris, violets, and raspberries leaves a lasting impression of sophistication and refinement.

Reviews

BBQ delight

"We opened this bottle at our BBQ to go with yoghurt marinated chicken breasts. The raspberry and spice notes were quite noticeable and worked well with the chicken. The modest tannins complemented the meal."

— Joseph M. (4/5)

Nice and will get better

"Nice nose, flavor, weight, smooth, balanced, good concentration. Will get better. I think there is more to come."

— Jim A. (5/5)

Vibrant yet refined pinot

"Delightful red fruits and subtle spice. Silky tannins with an excellent finish."

— Alex L. (4/5)

Another Gem

"Delicious wine, drinking young now, but quite promising. Cherries, spice, earth present and waiting to develop with more time. Silky with nice concentration. Looking forward to its evolution. Wish I could buy more."

— Christopher L. (5/5)

A Solid Libation!

"An easy-to-enjoy bottle of Pinot. Won't knock your socks off but not purported as doing so. It delivers what you'd expect, and you and your guests (if you have some when drinking this) will enjoy it with good conversation, a movie, fire, or game night."

— Bob R. (3/5)

Excellent QPR

"Great Pinot that we PNP and right out of the gate it was delicious. Great value"

— Frank (5/5)
