Product Ratings
Jeb Dunnuck 95pt

The 2023 Pinot Noir West Wind Vineyard comes from an oceanic site planted in 2017 and has a bit of wildness in its aromatics, leading with notes of sour black cherries, leather, saline, crushed stones, and piney, rosemary-like herbs. The palate is firmly structured and mouthwatering upfront, with medium to full-bodied richness, grippy tannins, salty, mouthwatering lift, and balanced acidity. It lasts long on the palate and has a good deal of tension.

James Suckling 92pt

This shows violets, wild berries, sour cherries, sandalwood and peaches on the nose, followed by a cool, juicy and mouthwatering palate. Medium-bodied with fine yet firm tannins. Drink or hold.

Wine Enthusiast 93pt

Blackberries and violets kick off a parade of aromas that include wet gravel and T-bones grilling over charcoal briquettes. Grippy tannins and gentle acidity provide the backdrop for tangy pomegranate seed, coriander and pine needle tea flavors. The wine has an oak quality that mixes cedar and a bit of caramel.

Wine Spectator 94pt

Polished yet keenly structured, with expressive flavors of raspberry and guava laced with orange peel, dusky spice and rose petal details as this builds tension and richness on the finish.
