Score 93/100 · Drink 2023-2031, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Sep 2023

The 2021 Pinot Noir John Sebastiano Vineyard Atticus is back in the range. Dark red cherry fruit, red plum, dried flowers, mint and spice are front and center. Ultimately, the 2021 is a bit smaller in scale than most wines from this site and somewhat of a work in progress, but it is nicely done just the same.

Another Sta. Rita Hills release, the 2021 Pinot Noir Atticus John-Sebastiano Vineyard was destemmed and spent 16 months in 66% new French oak. It reveals a translucent ruby hue followed by an awesome bouquet of redcurrants, framboise, dried rose petals, and savory herbs. Medium-bodied, balanced, and elegant, it has incredible tannins, no hard edges, and a great finish. Give bottles a year or two and enjoy over the following decade.
