96 points Erin Brooks (Wine Advocate): "The 2021 Pinot Noir Pastorale Vineyard is delicious straight from the bottle. Vinified with 24% whole clusters and matured for 14 months in 45% new oak, it's intense and expressive on the nose: baked rhubarb and blackberry jam aromas are complemented by touches of aniseed, tobacco leaves, citrus peel and bitters. The medium-bodied palate is chalky and fresh and offers generous, layered fruit. It's highly concentrated without broaching over-ripeness and delivers streaks of spice across the layered finish. Drink: 2025-2035. (10/19/23)"
95 points James Suckling: "Aromas of dried pinot with some cedar, bark and spice aromas. Full-bodied, with some smoke and toasted barrel undertones. Needs time to come together. Solid and structured. Need two to three years to open. Drink after 2025. (6/8/23)"
Producer notes: "[$105 list] Delicate floral aromatics open the bouquet, enhanced by vibrant strawberry notes. The palate unfolds with a harmonious blend of red fruits—bright strawberry, tart cranberry, and watermelon nuances."
