Wine Critics Notes:

Allen Meadows - Score: 90-92 (2019 Jan.)

Here the wood influence is no longer subtle as the toast fights a bit with the floral and spice-inflected red pinot, cherry and soft earth-suffused aromas. There is once again good detail to the bigger, richer and more obviously muscular flavors that manage to remain refined on the youthfully austere, refreshing and lightly stony flavors. This is a good deal less structured than it usually is and it's relatively rare to have a LSG that will likely mature before a decade has passed.
