Acacia Vineyard single vineyard Pinot Noirs have a distinct stylistic bent. They tend to be restrained and austere and lack the velvety texture that some drinkers may miss. I suspect that they will age very well. That said, when young, these wines are not at all showy. I would give them 6-12 months after release before diving in. The noticeable acidity in the wines demands food if drunk now. The winery and estate vineyard are located at 2750 Las Amigas Rd, Napa. The winemaker is Matthew Glynn. Production is 300,000 cases annually. There are single vineyard Pinot Noirs from Beckstoffer Vineyard ($75), DeSoto Vineyard ($55), and Winery Lake Vineyard ($55), Horseshoe Bend Vineyard ($65), St. Clair Vineyard ($75), and Lone Tree Estate Vineyard ($55). The wines are sold on the website. Tasting is available daily by appointment. 707-226-9991.
