This Sta. Rita Hills-focused label between Justin Willett and Étienne de Montille takes a 'low and slow' approach to the winemaking process, contrasting the relatively delicate, high-toned style of the Tyler wines. Pinot Noir at La Rinconada Vineyard tends to exude a burly and structured style, as is the case with the 2018 Racines bottling. Sourced from a plot just feet away from that which supplies Tyler, a savoury and soft nose introduces a weighty, wide and tannic showing that is built to last.

The 2018 Pinot Noir La Rinconada is a very pretty, airy wine. Crushed rose petal, mint, sage, cedar and dried herbs give the Racines Rinconada a good deal of aromatic lift. This is an especially translucent style. Whole clusters are evident but not overdone. I would cellar the 2018 for at least a year or two, as it is a bit edgy and not totally put together just yet.
