LAIRD
2016 PINOT NOIR
GHOST RANCH
I love it when a wine has flavors are so deep and penetrating, that it might be described as chilling, spine-tingling and scary good. All three of these descriptors came time mind when I tasted Laird’s 2016 Ghost Ranch Pinot Noir. It was authored by Brian Mox, who spent several vintages crafting the high-scoring Lewis wines, always ranking among the best in the Valley. It comes from an incredible Pinot Noir Vineyard in Carneros where vineyard workers have long reported seeing children between the rows and down by the creek… that would vanish when approached. Eerie! With just a few hundred cases produced, most of the production goes to their wine club. I strongly recommend securing yours before it vanishes…
Made in a deep, velvety style that I love, Laird’s 2016 Ghost Ranch is haunted by spine-tingling allure, laced with shades of wild blueberries, black cherries, vanilla and spices. If you like your Pinot Noirs a little fuller bodied, deep, and rich, I strongly recommend a case of this limited release.

JILLIAN’S BLEND
2014 NAPA VALLEY
Retails at: $48.00/btl
When Napa Valley’s preeminent farming family uses just 3% of their grapes to produce their own wine, they’re able to hand select the absolute best grapes, producing wines of unrivaled quality. We’ve always loved Laird’s Jillian’s Blend, but our affection was further solidified when we tasted the new vintage side-by-side another Napa Cab Blend that we love, which retails at $70/btl. We unanimously agreed that the Laird eclipsed it by a healthy margin.
