One of the first California producers to make hardcore Burgundy lovers sit up straight, not because the wines taste like Burgundy but because they chase the same elegance and terroir through mountain farming: steep Santa Cruz Mountains slopes, cold Pacific air, low yields, and an obsession with letting rock and exposure speak. Alpine is the estate's perfumed, lifted side, all aromatic charm and red-fruited finesse. This 2015 has a decade of bottle age already, so it is drinking in a lovely spot, though it has the structure to keep going. A serious bottle for Pinot devotees. Decant if you open it now.
