93+ points Erin Brooks (Wine Advocate): "[$75 list] The 2017 Pinot Noir Hyde Vineyard, aged in 50% new oak, has a pale to medium ruby-purple color and a nose of cinnamon stick, charcuterie, baked cranberries, raspberries and boysenberry with oodles of violet and lilac perfume, licorice, tea leaves and fragrant earth. Light to medium-bodied, it’s bright, inviting and intense in the mouth with wonderful layering of earth, spice, amaro and floral notions. It’s energized by juicy acidity and structured with finely grained tannins, finishing long and flavorful. This is drinking beautifully now but will benefit from another year in bottle. 857 cases produced. Drink: 2020-2030. (Dec 2019)"
93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Stewed black fruit fills a dense texture-packed core of tannin and pronounced oak in this exuberant wine, with moderately structured acidity lending a balanced approach. Blue fruit and a touch of vanilla meet the palate head-on, showing a lifted intensity and noticeable length. Alcohol 14.2%. (May 2020)"
