This successful Pinot Noir from a difficult vintage treads an exciting line: It contains subtle notes of tomato and beetroot, but that vegetativeness only adds an earthy complexity to the ripe flavors of black cherry and plum. It’s a fancy, elegant wine to drink now, and should gain traction over the next 5–6 years. — (12/1/2012) —93

Somewhere between the acidity and dryness, this Pinot has a terrifically interesting core. It’s a subtle wine, now suggesting cherry fruit, now retreating in favor of earthier mushrooms, minerals and pine needles, framed in firm tannins. Strikes out new territory for cool-climate Pinot Noir, less ripe, lower in alcohol and more exciting. ——S.H.(10/1/2011)—— 94
