94 points Erin Brooks (Wine Advocate): "The 2022 Pinot Noir La Combe Verte was sourced from vineyards planted on both volcanic and sedimentary soils, including Distraction, Freedom Hill, Sojeau, Temperance Hill and Witness Tree. Matured for 10 months in 25% new French oak, it opens with flinty reduction that gives way to cranberry, pomegranate, raspberry, forest floor and bitters. The palate offers bright, spicy red fruit, tea-textured tannins, vibrant acidity and a long, pure finish. Complex and expressive, the 2022 La Combe Verte is approachable now, although it will develop savory complexity in bottle over the next decade or more. 1,480 cases produced." 91 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The woodland-inspired 2022 Pinot Noir La Combe Verte blossoms in the glass with a blend of wild berries, sage, pine shavings and flowery underbrush. This opens with a burst of vividly pure red and blue fruits accelerated by vibrant acidity. Blood orange and savory spices swirl throughout. The 2022 holds nothing back yet comes across as wonderfully refined, tapering off long and gently tannic while leaving the mouth watering for more."
