94 Points James Suckling
The tension and linearity of this wine are incredible, as fresh, vivid fruit flavors ride an electric wave of bracing acidity from the first whiff to the long, lingering finish. Layers of haunting mushroom, iron and bay leaf nuances meet cranberries, sour cherries, rhubarb and black tea flavors that linger and echo after the last sip.

Vibrant and tart with acidity, this red offers well-sculpted cherry and cranberry flavors highlighted by savory tea and tarragon tones that build toward lively tannins. Drink now through 2032.

A medium, matte-red color, the 2022 Pinot Noir Mineral Springs Ranch is ripe with autumnal spiced aromas of baked cherries, mushroom-covered earth, walnut, and baking spice. The palate is medium-bodied, with ripe tannins and a more modest feel through the finish.
 
Winemaker Notes
The 2022 Mineral Springs Ranch Pinot Noir is a wine that starts quietly, but gradually draws you in until you never want to let go. Its aromas begin with familiar notes of ripe red cherry and red plum, then reveal more intriguing layers like white peppercorn, roasted red pepper flake, and red raspberry seed. On the palate, it offers a generous mix of red alpine berries and wild currants, complemented by captivating hints of palo santo and propolis, a rich, herbal exudate from honey bees. Structured and vibrant, this is a wine that will be remembered and discussed for years to come.
