Reviews and Ratings

Lynn van der Linde - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Not your traditional Pinot Noir. Heavier than most, this Pinot Noir is made from Lodi, California grapes, and in a Mediterranean climate with consistently warm days allowing the grapes to ripen perfectly, and imparting lots of fruit-forward characteristics.
Enticing aromas of black cherries, vanilla and baking spices transform into a raspberry palate with hint of sweetness that allows the flavours to stick around...and impart a lingering spicy finish.
Pair with roast chicken or blackened salmon.
Tasted Nov 2021.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
