ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE 91 POINTS - "The 2023 vintage proved to be a fortunate pairing for the balanced, texturally precise style at Linne Calodo, resulting in a pure, harmonious lineup that highlights the Willow Creek District's ability to produce nuanced, balanced and multifaceted wines if that is the mission from the start."
"A new addition to the Linne Calodo lineup that started out as a bag-in-box offering, the 2023 LC Red offers an attractive, floral and dark-fruited nose with hints of anise, leading to a svelte and elegant palate with balanced richness. The finish combines chalky tannins with mouthwatering acidity and a vibrant, refreshing energy overall. It is a blend of 72% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 8% Mourvèdre, matured in foudre for 15 months."
WINE SPECTATOR 91 POINTS - "A little tight at the moment, with subtle aromas of orange peel and freesia alongside fresh berry and Rainier cherry flavors at the center. Wins points for its purity and freshness on the finish around polished tannins. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Drink now. 172 cases made."
