Description
Lakeview Vineyard is Morét’s flagship wine – the vineyard she has worked with since 2021. Her recent press on this new release is remarkable:
- 2024 Morét-Brealynn Pinot Noir Lakeview Vineyard – USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (12/9/2025)
Day 1: Screw Cap. The second I tasted this it screamed classic Russian River Valley Pinot. Strawberries, smoke, rose petals, matchstick, cherry, earth and dust. Super complex wine and a real stunner. One of the better Pinots I have tasted from California in a while. 94+
Day 2: My favorite of the lineup. Wafer, forest floor, oak, cranberry, strawberries, mushrooms, spice and violets. Medium plus finish. Very small production. Medium plus finish. 94+ points
Day 3: Savory wine with soy, forest floor, wafer, cranberry, strawberries, mushrooms, violets, spices and dust. Complex wine and balanced is the key word here! Medium plus finish. Wonderful effort and great new discovery in 2025. 95 points
Recommendation: Not many Pinots achieving a 3 Day Review at 95 or higher in 2025. Cheers.5 barrels of this wine. 80 cases total. Natural yeast and unfiltered. Wonderful! (95 pts.)
