Staff Pick Notes

Lioco has been producing beautiful low intervention wines since 2005 throughout 4 counties in California. With a focus on old world styles and the more restrained Californian wines of the 80's the delicate nature of each expression shines through. This Pinot Noir is utilizing a mix of multiple clones including Pommard, 777, 667, and Martini and is sourced from across the Mendocino county.

Distinctively Californian in all the best ways.
