92 Points Vinous
The 2021 Pinot Noir Estate opens with a rich blend of brown spice and cherry sauce elevated by hints of dusty sage. This sweeps across the palate with lifted textures and succulent red berry fruits underscored by tactile mineral tones. It finishes spicy and long with a lingering tension but only gently tannic.
 
92 Points James Suckling
Notes of red fruit, spices, savory herbs and hints of chocolate. Medium-bodied, crunchy and juicy, with fine tannins and a flavorful, weighty finish.
 
92 Points Wine Enthusiast
A rich strawberry sorbet aroma is accented by traces of dark chocolate, violets and salty Marcona almonds. The wine's clean and fresh mouthfeel is home to blueberry, boysenberry cedar and tart lemon citrus flavors. A moderate amount of acidity intersects with sturdy tannins to create a sense of balance.
 
Winemaker Notes
Deceptively clear and bright in color. The nose is immensely complex with dried blackberry, dusty bramble, bright raspberry and lovely spice. There seems to be a hint of herbal bouquet garni that works lockstep with the fruit and adds even more complexity. The palate is smooth and harmonious, with a silky, almost viscous midpalate, the spice notes give soul and linger on the finish.
