Overview of the Wine
Talley Vineyards is a family owned and operated winery that specializes in estate grown Chardonnay and Pinot Noir ideally suited for the climate and soils of the Arroyo Grande and Edna Valleys. The Talley’s farming history in the area dates to 1948 when Oliver Talley began growing vegetables in the Arroyo Grande Valley. Guided by this legacy and a commitment to long term sustainability, Talley Vineyards focuses on attention to detail in all aspects of farming and winemaking operations. The goal is to produce distinctive wines of consistently high quality that best express the unique character of each of the Talley family’s six vineyard sites in the two valleys.

Talley Vineyards is located in the Arroyo Grande Valley, seven miles east of the Pacific Ocean in San Luis Obispo County on California's South Central Coast. We are approximately halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles and less than 10 minutes from Highway 101 in Arroyo Grande.

Winemaker Tasting Notes
This premiere Pinot Noir opens with aromas of raspberry, lavender, blackberry, cedar and vanilla bean while flavors of boysenberry, black tea, Bing cherry finish with a powerful elegance.

The interplay of cool ocean breezes and warm, sun-kissed days bestows upon these vines a distinctive character, evoking a sense of grace and elegance that is echoed in the wine. The 2021 vintage is long and lively with layers of red berry bliss, embraced by hints of vanilla and a gentle earthiness that unveils a captivating story in every sip.

95 Points - Ian Blackburn
One of the hero's of the Central Coast - and I think Brian Talley should get an award for "constant improvement."  I have always liked this wine but this year - "love' enters the description... there is an elite level of quality showing through with Rosemary's!  Fruit, Flash and Flare - this wine has it all... dense cherry, tea and floral notes, polished and wise winemaking - 2021 is an awesome wine.  14/24/23/34

94 Points - Vinous
The 2021 Pinot Noir Rosemary's Vineyard is a classy, elegant wine. Bright red-toned fruit, cinnamon, dried leaves, tobacco and orange peel are beautifully lifted. Translucent and super-expressive, with tons of energy, the 2021 is absolutely compelling. It's a terrific wine from Brian Talley.

94 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Enticing red cherry and pomegranate aromas gain depth from the fennel pollen and crushed thyme elements on the nose of this single-vineyard expression. The palate is tense and snappy with bright acidity, as raspberry flavors meet with wild mint and light tarragon.

93 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
The 2021 Pinot Noir Rosemary's Vineyard is a step up and has a beautiful nose of ripe framboise, spring flowers, black tea, and leather. As with all of the Pinot Noirs here, it plays in the medium-bodied, elegant (at times mid-weight) style of the estate, but the balance is spot on, it has beautiful tannins, and a great finish. This incredibly seductive, elegant 2021 will evolve for at least a decade.
