Expert Reviews - Vintage 2022
Audrey Frick writes: Another potential wine for a Top 100 list, the 2022 Pinot Noir Select is a jeweled red/ruby color and offers a fantastic bouquet of spicy fresh herbs, pomegranate, peppery spice, and wildflowers. Medium-bodied, it’s energetic and lifted on the palate, with a mouthwatering feel and fine, well-defined tannins. I love its texture, which has a crisp feel with notes of orange peel through the finish. It’s a more angular wine for this vintage, and I love it. The estate has backed off punch downs and is working with more delicate pumpovers instead, and it shows. It’s very pretty and transparent in its feel. Drink 2025-2040. - Jeb Dunnuck 95
Tim Fish writes: Vibrant and floral, with expressive raspberry and cranberry flavors that are laced with pretty notes of rose petal, forest floor and dusky spices as this glides toward refined tannins. Drink now through 2032. - Wine Spectator 93
Eric Guido writes: The 2022 Pinot Noir Select is wonderfully perfumed with spice-tinged red berries, cloves and dusty flowers. This is juicy and energetic on the palate, with raspberry and cherry depths slowly saturating the senses. This finishes long and sapid with fine tannins framing exotic spices and inner florals, all enlivened by a bump of residual acidity. Drinking 2025 to 2031. - Vinous 93
Erin Brooks writes: The 2022 Pinot Noir Select is bursting with blueberry and pomegranate on the nose, plus accents of orange peel, tea leaves and forest floor. The medium-bodied palate is finely chalky and bright, and its long, flavorful finish calls you in for another sip. Drinking 2024 to 2034. - Robert Parker Wine Advocate 92
Samantha Cole-Johnson writes:Pale ruby in colour. Gorgeous, stemmy spice on the nose with green cardamom, rose and bright, tart Bing cherry. Really lovely. Fresh mouth-watering acidity with lightly drying tannin and a long, earthy potting-soil-kissed finish. Refreshing. Ready now. Drinking 2024 to 2030. - Jancis Robinson 17+
