Review: Calera 2021 Pinot Noir Central Coast ($32)

This fresh, lively, complex Pinot Noir should make some top 100 wines of the year lists in 2023, it's certainly on par with some wines costing two or three times as much, and with 25,500 cases produced, you might actually be able to find a bottle. It opens with gorgeous blueberry, violet, and boysenberry aromas, has silky medium-weight blue and red fruit flavors and hints of baking spices on the long finish. A brilliant wine at a reasonable price. (95 Points)
