Pinot Noir · North Coast
97 points from Robert Parker, and only 88 cases made.
“The 2021 Pinot Noir Sous le Chêne comes from a single parcel in La Côte, just underneath its iconic oak tree, and was matured in 100% new barrels. Medium ruby in color, it begins with streaks of saline, tobacco and tea leaves, graphite and dried herbs over a core of briary fruits. The medium-bodied palate surprises with its concentrated wild berry fruit and fireworks of fresh acidity, powdery tannins and great detail. It will continue to unwind in bottle over the next 3-5 years and has what it needs for a long life in bottle.”
“The 2021 Pinot Noir Sous le Chêne emerges from the central portion of the top section of La Côte. Crushed flowers, mint, sage, tobacco, incense, sweet red cherry fruit and bright saline notes are all laced together. Hints of gravel, cured meats and black olive appear later. In this vintage, le Chêne has a Syrah-like savory intensity that is palpable. It is at once deep and compact.”
“A bright, seemingly open-knit style (at first), with a lively set of pomegranate and damson plum fruit flavors flecked with bay leaf, red tea and savory notes. This wine's energy and well-embedded structure starts to show through the finish, which offers mouthwatering cut and a lovely, persistent mineral edge that drives underneath.”

“Add nothing; take nothing away.”
The philosophy Domaine de la Cote makes its wines by.Domaine de la Côte is a collection of six vineyards planted over 40 acres on the farthest western edge of the Sta. Rita Hills appellation. Originally part of the Evening Land Vineyards program, the Domaine was purchased by Raj Parr and Sashi Moorman, along with their partner, at the beginning of 2013. Moorman discovered the site and developed the vineyards with Chris King in 2007.
Under his direction, the vineyards were planted entirely to California heritage selections at extremely high vine densities between 4,000 and 7,000 vines per acre. The Domaine organically farms its vineyards and makes its wines with the philosophy of "add nothing; take nothing away."
