Lloyd Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2022

The Lloyd by Robert Lloyd Pinot Noir pours a vibrant ruby hue, revealing enticing aromas of black cherry, ripe raspberry, and a touch of baking spice. On the palate, it offers a harmonious blend of red and black berry flavors, complemented by notes of vanilla, cocoa, and a hint of earthiness. The mouthfeel is velvety and luxurious, with soft, well-integrated tannins balanced by a lively acidity that adds freshness and energy to the wine. The finish is long and elegant, leaving traces of fruit and subtle oak spice that linger graceful.

This Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including roasted duck, grilled salmon, herb-crusted lamb, and mushroom risotto. Its bold flavors also complement seared tuna, pork tenderloin, and rich cheeses such as creamy brie, camembert, and smoked gouda, making it a versatile choice for any meal or gathering.
