It is important to understand that in most (all?) Pinot noir-producing regions of the world, you won't see "Estate" and "$16" in the same sentence, let alone the same paragraph. But Whistling Dog has been delivering values like this for years, grown and vinified by their own hands. "Yeah Marcus, but is it good?," predicting the inevitable questions. It is fantastic! Extended barrel time (18 months) and bottle time have made this sing a supple and seamless song. A Pinot noir that out-classes its peers, and an easy choice for a case-buy.
