Matt Dees continues to do brilliant work at Mail Road, which draws fruit from its estate Mt. Carmel Vineyard, one of the most compelling sites in the Sta. Rita Hills. Mail Road has decided to focus on a single Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, which means 2015 is the last year in which the Blocks Pinot Noir was made. Starting with the 2015, the Chardonnay gets an additional six months in tank, a classic Burgundian aging regimen that, judging by the 2015, appears very well suited to the house style.
