A new winery from an old one. Kirkland Ranch not associated with Costco.. sold and now Jamieson Ranch with different names. Light Horse, Reata and Jamieson Ranch. All are purchased fruit at this time.
Light Horse Chardonnay California 2012.. heavy on the oak influence.. not a lot of fruit and still more oakiness on the palate..
Reata Chardonnay Carneros 2012 juicy but still heavy handed on the oak. toasty finish with some tropical fruit coming on the end
Light Horse Pinot Noir California 2012.. candy corn nose, sweet fruit, typical of what Cali Pinot tastes like
Reata Pinot Noir Three County 2012 very juicy. highly extracted.. not a lot of acidity or subtelty. and they were not apologetic about this..
Jamieson Ranch Double Lariat Cabernet 2011.. very pretty nose of cedar and graphite, the fruit on the palate was juicy and textured.. good grip.. a problem trying to taste the red wines on the warmest day of the year.. acidity doesnt show as well
