Littorai, Wendling Vineyard Block E Pinot Noir Brut Zero cherry and pungent flowers showThe 2021 Pinot Noir Wendling Vineyard Block E, from vines planted in 2010, has opened and become more expressive since I tasted it in early 2023. It unfolds aromas of blueberry and blackberry with nuances of charcuterie, aniseed, Angostura bitters and forest floor. The medium bodied palate offers supple, detailed fruit, powdery tannins, vibrant acidity and a very long, ultra spicy finish. 598 cases produced.
