This is the first of the 2017 Pinot Noirs by Dan Goldfield that I’ve tasted, and it’s up to his usual high standards. Strawberry, rhubarb and bright spice aromas and flavors get a lift from the acidity provided by this cool site, and finish together long and lively. As always with this line, it will cellar well across the next decade.
