Tasting notes
The 2022 Pinot Noir Family Farm Vineyard is gorgeous in this vintage, leading with an ethereal, intense yet measured nose of pomegranate skin, turned earth and dried leaves. The palate is stunningly refined and possibly the most silky of the lineup, which is saying something within the context of these wines. It offers beautiful sophistication and delineation between its pure, vibrant fruit flavors, spine of structural acidity and cascading yet weightless tannins, concluding with a subtle creamy richness that fills it out beautifully. This is a highlight within a roster where picking a favorite is no easy task.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Family Farm is redolent of crushed red berry fruit, dried herbs, chalk, mint, kirsch and cedar. Floral, savory and mineral overtones dominate over fruit in mid-weight, sinewy Pinot endowed with tons of complexity and nuance. The Family Farm, from the oldest vines at Rhys, is a Pinot of subtlety and understatement more than power. - Antonio Galloni
