“The 2018 Pinot Noir Estate Reserve is a blend of numerous parcels across the ranch, essentially from East Ridge, West Ridge, Raschen and Block 8. Powerful, rich and also quite tannic, the 2018 is a reticent Pinot that will demand cellaring. I would not plan on opening a bottle anytime soon.” – Antonio Galloni

“The 2018 Pinot Noir Reserve checks in as a cellar selection of the best terroirs. It’s just ever so slightly deeper ruby-hued, yet it’s still translucent in color. Revealing a great nose of darker cherry, redcurrant, scorched earth, crushed rock, and assorted savory dried herbs, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness and the classic, mineral-driven, structured, more acid and tannin-driven style that’s favored by this estate. Nicely balanced, with plenty of fruit, this is a wine you could drink today, but I think it’s going to pick up additional complexity with just 2-3 years of bottle age, and I have no doubt it will have 15+ years of overall longevity.” – Jeb Dunnuck

“This shows wonderful complexity and subtlety with dried cherries, mushrooms, bark and forest floor on the nose. Full-bodied, yet so precise and tailored with beautiful fruit. Fine and fresh on the finish, which goes on and on. Pretty acidity, too. Drinkable now, but this will deliver something wonderful in two or three years. Try after 2022.” – James Suckling
