"The 2013 Pinot Noir Presqu'ile Vineyard is round, succulent and deeply expressive. Juicy dark cherries, plums, sweet spice, flowers and herbs form an attractive fabric. Pliant and open-knit, the 2013 is impressive for many reasons, including its terrific balance and sense of harmony, two qualities that require serious work here. Ernst Storm has done a tremendous job in taming the vegetal qualities that often penalize wines from this Santa Maria site. The 2013 was done with just a touch of whole clusters (15%) and aged for ten months in mostly neutral oak."
