Memorious  (1.4ha) is one of Domaine de la Côte's single site parcels, found just above the Santa Ynez River, immediately downslope of Bloom’s Field. Facing straight into the Pacific winds, the dark clay soils and exceptionally cool climate produce DDLC’s most brooding bottlings. Always welcoming and engaging, this is a delicious and generous wine with deceptively subtle force. 

95/100 - The 2020 Pinot Noir Memorious is sublime. Rose petal, lavender, sage, mint, macerated cherry and blood orange give the 2020 captivating aromatic presence. Light and gracious in feel, yet also expansive on the palate, the 2020 is a Pinot of simply mesmerizing beauty. The whole clusters are evident and yet not at all intrusive. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous

93/100 - The 2020 Pinot Noir Memorious reveals its perfume slowly, suggesting it has more to offer with time in bottle. Scents of blueberries and wild blackberries are complemented by tones of purple flowers, dried herbs, woodsmoke and bergamot, and these pure, graphite-laced flavors are echoed on the palate. Medium-bodied, chalky and fresh, it finishes long and layered. - Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate

 

 

On the nose, homey, inviting scents of ripe red fruits (think dark raspberry, wild strawberry, and sour cherry) alongside touches tea, tobacco, and cedar.

On the palate, it is texturally more tight than previous vintages. Awash with youthful energy now, this is a wine that will settle down after a few years in bottle.
