Mendo Pinot prices have lately had us thinking that some of our old faves may be sampling too much of Mendocino’s *other* main cash crop... or that Mendocino’s famous “Deep End” is realer than we thought, and they’ve gone off it! But Lioco winemaker Drew Huffine has harnessed the unicorn of a Mendo Pinot that’s as properly delicious as it is affordable. (His first vintage he only made 1000 cases... and watched as it got snapped up by Michelin-starred restaurants all over the place!) Nervy like a good Burg, red-fruited, and bright -- but with depth from whole-cluster use as well as unmistakable Cali sunshine.
