97 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2018 Pinot Noir sports a medium ruby, plum, almost opaque hue as well as a killer bouquet of ripe black raspberries, redcurrants, roasted herbs, loamy earth, and sandalwood. Rich, almost full-bodied, and beautifully textured, with silky, polished tannins, this is another rock star of a Pinot Noir from Michael Browne that will deliver the goods over the coming 7-8 years, probably longer, although I have no idea why you would delay gratification! Drink: 2021-2029. (7/22/21)"

94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Pinot Noir Estate is racy and exuberant right out of the gate. A rush of sweet red cherry fruit, mocha, spice, cola, licorice and plum race across the palate. Succulent and engaging, with soft contours, the 2018 will drink well right out of the gate as it shows off its sensual personality. Readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off. Drink: 2022-2033. (Jan 2021)"

93 points Wine Spectator: "The rich core of well-structured dark cherry and red berry flavors show vibrant minerality and savoriness, with fine-grained spiciness midpalate. Ends with a pure-tasting finish that lingers with underbrush notes. Drink now through 2025. 2,168 cases made. (9/30/21)"
