Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021
Vinous Media 93 Points | The 2021 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast) is a huge overachiever. Bright, punchy and super-expressive, the 2021 offers up boisterous red/purplish fruit. Lavender, rose petal, spice and mint are all dialed up in this heady, explosive Pinot. Readers will have a very hard time finding a Pinot with this much quality for the money. All of the fruit is estate. I am not sure I have ever tasted a California Pinot this good for $40 a bottle.
James Suckling 92 Points | This is so bright and fruity, with vivid cherry, hibiscus and lime. Medium to full body. Tangy. Bitter orange at the end. Drink or hold.
The Wine Advocate 91 Points | The 2021 Pinot Noir is made from 100% estate fruit this year. Bottled under screw cap, it takes a minute or two to reveal cranberry sauce, baked rhubarb, red cherries and mint with touches of mushroom and mossy bark. The light-bodied palate is chalky and refreshing with concentrated, earthy fruit, and it has a satisfying finish that draws you in for another sip.
