93 Points James Suckling
Aromas unfold with layers of dark chocolate bark and dried cranberry mingling with hints of blackberry, black cap raspberry, and bergamot tea. On the palate, flavors of cola and black pepper are complemented by luscious, ripe tannins with a touch of fig jam, creating a harmonious expression of fruit and structure.
90 Points Vinous
The 2022 Pinot Noir The Stalker smolders with a beguiling blend of crushed black cherries and clove, complicated by dried herbs and dusty violet flowers. The palate is round and soothingly soft, offset by a crunchy array of wild berries and crisp mineral tones, while an air of lavender arches across the palate. Pleasantly chewy and long, it leaves a sour citrus twang and spicy resonance as sweet tannins slowly fade. This Pinot Noir The Stalker was done with 100% whole cluster fruit.
