Reviewed June 2019The 2017 Pinot Noir Platt Vineyard is one of the more Burgundian wines in the lineup, with a Côte de Nuits-like bouquet of smoked dark fruits, earth, spice, and smoky, meaty notes. Medium to full-bodied, with plenty of fruit, it has bright acidity, terrific balance, and shines for its purity of fruit.

The 2017 Pinot Noir Platt Vineyard is ample, full-bodied and detailed, with beguiling intensity in all of its dimensions. Dark plum, violet, lavender and game all develop in a Pinot that stands out for its virile, rather somber expression. The purity of the fruit is remarkable. There is so much to like here. It will be interesting to see where the Platt goes in the coming vintages as Thomas Brown and his team gain more familiarity with the fruit. (AG)

Wine Advocate
Aged 10 months in 33% new French oak, the medium ruby-purple colored 2017 Pinot Noir Platt Vineyard has a nose of cinnamon stick, dusty earth, autumn leaves, charcuterie and mushroom with accents of amaro, dried tea leaves, citrus and smoke. The light to medium-bodied palate is earthy/savory with firm, chalky tannins and seamless freshness on the finish. (EB)
