94 points Tim Atkin, MW: "'The story is the parcel,' says Duncan Savage about this superb Darling Cinsault blended with 11% Syrah. With 50% whole bunches adding extra texture and perfume, this is a superb, rose petal, cherry stone and raspberry-like red with understated oak, fine tannins and superb palate length. 2021-28. (2019)"
93 points Wine Spectator: "A silky red, with distinctive minerality, light tannins and bright acidity that combine to create a backbone behind the flavors of rose hip and hibiscus, revealing a hint of white pepper and a light savory herb edge. Harmonious and graceful, this shows good range and depth. Drink now through 2028. 733 cases made, 30 cases imported. (4/30/20)"
93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "[$45 list] The 2018 Follow The Line is mainly Syrah with 14% Cinsault and includes 50% whole-bunch fruit. It has a detailed, tertiary nose of brambly red berry fruit infused with hints of morel. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fine acidity, a gentle, caressing texture and a saline, slightly savory finish that is understated but persistent. Follow this wine. Drink: 2022-2040. (Nov 2019)"
