Steve Kistler's 2012 Occidental Pinots are off the charts gorgeous. My sense is that over time, the Occidental Pinots will become increasingly stylistically differentiated from the Kistler Pinots. Part of that is a reflection of the inherent personalities of the sites that are part of the Occidental range, but it also is quite evident that with Occidental Steve Kistler has a desire to get back to a smaller, more hands-on operation. Readers who can find the Occidental Pinots should not hesitate to grab them, as they are truly magnificent.
