96+ points Erin Brooks (Wine Advocate): "The 2021 Pinot Noir Coastlands Vineyard comes from vines planted between 1989 and 1998 in marine sedimentary soils at 1,150 feet above sea level. Made with 40% whole clusters, it opens with aromas of saline and red licorice, plus a touch of spicy oak from its recent bottling, over a deep core of pomegranate and lavender. The medium-bodied palate features concentrated, layered flavors supported by a firm frame of chalky tannins and focused acidity, and it has a long finish loaded with latent, spicy accents. It's powerful and nuanced, but it's developing a bit more slowly than the other 2021s. It deserves several years in bottle to unwind and will be long lived. 775 cases were made. Drink 2025-2040 (Dec 2023)"
96 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2021 Pinot Noir Coastlands is stunning. A wine of crystalline precision, the 2021 is captivating, to say the least. Crushed red berry fruit, blood orange, mint, white pepper, orange peel and exotic spice notes from the 40% whole clusters all run through this vibrant, chiseled Pinot. Time in the glass releases its inner perfume and layers of fruit to balance out the wine's energy. In a word: dazzling. Drink 2025-2036 (Jan 2024)"
95 points/'Editors' Choice' Wine Enthusiast: "The nose of this aromatically compelling Pinot is packed with aromas of blackberries, plum skin, lilacs and pine forest, while the palate brings rich earthy flavors of cranberry, roasted mushroom and nori that mingle and dance along a deftly balanced palate with vibrational acidity and a nifty crunch of tannin. (Mar 2025)"
95 points Clive Pursehouse (Decanter): "Elegance meets richness, violet and rose petals play alongside tart early season black berries. There palate shows gossamer elements of pine bough, and briny sea spray. freshly turned earth, and pine sap and pomegranate . It finishes lean and linear, fresh notes of black tea. Coastlands is a melange of three sites. In 1998 they planted the 1906 block (there is a oak tree carved with the year on it), as well as the Big Rock block and the older vine Old Firs block was planted in 1989. Drinking window 2024-2035 (Jan 2024)"
