James Suckling, 97 Points

“What an amazing nose of grilled dried seaweed, oyster shell, dried strawberry and iron. Full to medium body with linear tannins that give it drive and length. Iron shavings. Tight at the end. Superb. Drink after 2025.“

Wine Spectator, 95 Points

“A tightly focused, long and pure expression of Pinot, with raspberry coulis and blood orange zest notes streaming along, laced liberally with sous-bois, red tea and savory accents. Reveals lots of underlying energy, with everything in lockstep through the mineral-edged finish.”

Wine Enthusiast, 95 Points

“Refreshing acidity and delicious, lively fruit flavors light up this elegant, well-balanced wine grown fewer than two miles from the chilly Pacific. Red cherries, raspberries and leafy, woodsy touches carry the palate, while medium tannins keep it fresh.“

Winemaker Notes:

“Pungent, coastal aromas pin the source of this Pinot Noir high elevation ridges juxtaposed to the mossy, rocky shoreline of the Pacific Ocean. Bright, salty notes on the nose conjure a fresh sea breeze, while cool loam and the scent of wild botanicals embody the evergreen forest nearby. Red cherry and vivid wild strawberry pop on a singularly expressive palate, filling the mouth with firm but fine textures. A distinct vein of iron-rich minerality unspools under intriguing layers of orange peel and bergamot tea, all coming together in a vibrant, lingering finish.”
