“The Prospect” by Paul Lato Sierra Madre Vineyard Pinot Noir | 2015 | 750 ml.

RP93 Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate 29th Sep 2017

"The 2015 Pinot Noir The Prospect Sierra Madre Vineyard has a pale ruby-purple color and delivers intense cherry cordial, raspberry pie and baking spice notes over a black pepper and dried Provence herb background with a hint of mossy bark. Medium-bodied, elegantly styled and with delicate earth and spice notes accenting the restrained red fruits, it has a fine-grained frame and persistent peppery suggestions on the finish." (93 pts.)

"The 2015 Pinot Noir The Prospect Sierra Madre Vineyard is polished and sensual from the very first taste. Plump and juicy, but also light on its feet, it has a level of finesse and subtlety that is quite rare in this vintage. Bright, saline notes infuse the tightly wound finish. I would prefer to cellar the 2015 for a year or two." (94+ pts.)
