Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021
- Decanter — 96 pts: "Delightful, extra juicy red and black fruits give graciously and generously with a mouth-filling texture and soft, silky tannins. The coolness of the Sonoma Coast takes the salty sea air and places it squarely on the grapes to give this wine a lovely saline finish. The great structural envelope will protect this wine for the future. It will last and last."
- Wine Spectator — 93 pts: "Fresh and lively, raspberry and mulberry coulis with a mouthwatering savory edge. Textbook vintage and AVA profile. Drink now through 2031."
- Wine Advocate — 90 pts: "Aromas of red and black cherries, mint, forest floor and allspice. Generous, spicy fruit with grainy tannins and juicy acidity."

Expert Reviews - Prior Vintages, 2020, 2018
(Vintage 2020); Wine Enthusiast 94 Points | Intense black fruits and a firm structure give this complex wine an eye-opening sense of concentration and grip. Decant and drink now if you must but time will improve this full-bodied, generously oaked powerhouse. Best from 2027–2034.
(Vintage 2020); The Wine Spectator 92 Points | Ripe, juicy and focused, with a core of griotte notes wrapped in licorice and fruitcake, all backed by black tea and sous-bois hints through the finish. On the toasty side, but the fruit keeps the upper hand and there's good energy from start to finish.
(Vintage 2018); Jeb Dunnuck 92 Points | Readers looking for a classic Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir that won’t break the bank should check out the 2018 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast from Patz and Hall. Revealing a translucent ruby/purple color as well as a beautiful perfume of wild strawberries, framboise, savory herbs, and earthy, crushed stone-like minerality, it hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, a bright spine of acidity, ripe tannins, and a gorgeous finish.
(Vintage 2018); Wine Enthusiast 93 Points | This is a great representation of coastal intensity and freshness, built around a spicy, full-bodied core of dark-berry fruit, crushed rock and dried herb. Forest and tea accents underscore its wild appeal and provenance.
