Vinous, October 2023, Score: 95+
The 2021 Lytton Springs is fabulous. Bright and vibrant to its core, the 2021 impresses with its poise. Readers will find a Lytton Springs that is very much in reserve, as opposed to the rest of the 2021s in this report, all of which are more approachable. Salivating acids and veins of tannin lend shape and persistence, but the 2021 needs time. Red cherry fruit, blood orange, rose petal and sage are some of the notes that linger on the close.

Jancis Robinson, January 2024, Score: 17+
72% Zinfandel, 15% Petite Sirah, 9% Carignan, 2% Alicante Bouschet, 1% Cinsault and 1% Counoise. Red-berry fruit, dark chocolate and spiciness. Fragrant and lifted but with serious structure that makes the best of all the varieties. Certainly has potential to age well.
Region
Sonoma
Sonoma Valley AVA is an appellation in California, USA. It is the oldest wine region north of San Francisco and is located on the western side of the Mayacamas Mountains, which separate it from the Napa Valley. The valley nearly touches the Russian river valley to the north-west and reaches the Sonoma portion of Carneros in the south. With steep mountains on either side there are great variations in climate and geology, which gives way to many different grape varieties and styles. The most notable varieties are Chardonnay and Zinfandel but also Cabernet and Merlot from hillside sites.
