I was shocked by this wine. So well balanced. Herbs and fruit with some oak. Definitely recommend for new world Mourvèdre. — 7 years ago
Fantastic bottle from my quickly diminishing "cellar" — 10 years ago
Another outstanding effort from Greg Brewer at Melville. The indigene series of their Small Lot collection is almost always my favorite. Brilliant strawberry on the nose coming from clone 115, but the use of indigeneous yeast (as opposed to innoculation) always seems to impart a subtle complexity to this wine despite being a single clonal bottling. Terrific spice on the nose and palate that I always associate with Melville (but far more subtle and integrated that what one finds in the Verna's, for example), this is what Santa Rita Hills pinot is all about. This is not my favorite incarnation of the 115 Indigene - that was the 2006 - but this is still a terrific wine. Across the board, for my money Melville is the best quality/price ratio for pinot you're going to find anywhere in the Central Coast. — 11 years ago

Lavender. Cherry. Lovely. — 5 years ago
From a very limited series of individual small lot Pinot clones, this one Dijon 115 grown on the central coast. Hazy. Supple texture that’s got a very focused, eager-to-please cherry fruit profile. A ripe basket combo of sour, black and sweet maraschino. Super enjoyable. — 6 years ago
Pleasant sweetness and longer finish. Flavours of Honeycrisp apples and lime. A small-lot wine that speaks of the land from Lightfoot & Wolfville's Terroir series. Fermented in stainless steel tanks, a portion of the unfermented juice was added as ‘sussreserve’ to balance sweetness and complexity. It is 100% Riesling crafted in an off-dry style so the wine's naturally high acidity is beautifully balanced by residual sugar.
