Score 93/100 · Drink 2025-2035, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Aug 2025

The 2023 Pinot Noir has pure aromas of pomegranate, raspberry, earth, rooibos tea and graham cracker. The medium-bodied palate is powerful yet elegant, characterized by particularly refined tannins and vibrant acidity. It offers concentrated, crunchy fruit flavors and has a long, spicy finish. 10,170 cases produced.

Score 95/100 · James Suckling, Jan 2025

Beautiful, broad, black-fruit flavors and a nicely firm texture make this widely available wine both tempting and fresh. Gorgeous black cherries, blueberries, black tea and redwood forest aromas and flavors are backed by good, crunchy acidity and moderate tannins. Drink now or hold.
