William Hill Estate, Central Coast (California) Pinot Noir 2016

 This is an eye-popping Pinot Noir bargain at $18, showing generous but still delicate Bing cherry fruit and some interesting savory undertones.  A couple of years in bottle have done this wine a lot of good, taking the overtly fruity edge off but still leaving plenty of primary character and adding in those aforementioned savory undertones.  Consequently, this tastes about twice as expensive as it turns out to be.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 San Diego International Wine and Spirits Challenge.
