91 points Wine Enthusiast: "This is a rich, fuller-bodied Pinot Noir with something for everyone. Smoked meat, blackberries and worn saddle leather will appeal to backyard BBQ enthusiasts, while concentrated cherry, raspberry and Valencia orange flavors will appeal to the fruit followers. Gardeners rejoice—sage and thyme make appearances. (Nov 2023)"
91 points Decanter: "This wine is made via separate lots, barrelled down and fermented for 10 months and then assembled as a barrel selection. Attractive aromatics of jammy berries and a hint of smoke introduce a palate of fleshy red and blue berry fruits, clove, cinnamon, and Christmas spice. Drinking window 2023-2028 (May 2023)"
90 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The 2021 Pinot Noir Terroir Series blossoms in the glass as dusty rose combines hints of sour citrus and wild strawberries. Silky and supple, this displays ripe red fruits and sweet inner spices with an air of rosy inner florals toward the close. It tapers off a bit shorter than anticipated yet leaves a pleasant tension and hints of tart blackberry. Drink 2025-2032 (Aug 2024)"
