Tyler Description
Few of California’s young winemakers possess the regional mastery that is illustrated by the work of Justin Willett, of Tyler winery. A son of Santa Barbara, Justin began Tyler in 2005 with eight barrels tucked away in the corner of Arcadian Winery, where he honed his approach to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir as assistant winemaker. Justin – a champion of old vines – has since engaged the famed historic vineyards of Santa Barbara, including the region-defining Sanford & Benedict, in the Sta. Rita Hills, and more recently, Bien Nacido, in the Santa Maria Valley.
Vinous: 94 Points
The 2015 Pinot Noir Dierberg Vineyard - Block 5 is another drop-dead gorgeous beauty from Tyler. Dark and mysterious, containing a multitude of layers that are just waiting to emerge, the 2015 is fabulous. Readers should expect a virile, imposing Pinot that needs time to come together. Even with all of its intensity, the 2015 preserves remarkable focus as it captures the pedigree of this site.
