93 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): "Glistening ruby-red. Mineral- and spice-accented red berry and cherry aromas are complemented by cola and floral nuances. Silky and appealingly sweet, offering vibrant raspberry, cherry and rose pastille flavors braced by a building mineral quality. Shows fine definition and floral lift on the energetic, persistent finish, which is framed by smooth, well-knit tannins. 15% whole clusters and 30% new French oak. Drink: 2022-2030. (Jan 2021)"

93 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$42 list] There's an expert level of restraint on the nose of this bottling, with aromas of rose hips, fennel, damp soil and strawberry. There's a great herbal display on the palate, with marjoram and tarragon accents, as well as crisp and deliciously tart flavors of plum skin and red currant. Alcohol 13.8%. (Mar 2021)"

90 points Jeb Dunnuck: "[$42 list] From some great sites, the 2018 Pinot Noir Estate is all varietal, aged 14 months in 30% new French oak and bottled without filtration. More raspberries, toasted spice, forest, and floral notes emerge from the glass. It's medium-bodied, elegant, and lively on the palate, with good depth and moderate length. (9/1/20)"
