“This relatively new but exceptionally promising winery is the pet project of Thomas Rivers Brown and Genevieve Marie Welsh, who have yet again produced a stunning range of wines that are well worth your attention. If you're not on the mailing list, this is one that you absolutely want to be on.” - Allen Meadows, on Rivers-Marie
“Rhys Vineyards produces very ambitious wines from vines planted in specific sites in the Santa Cruz Mountains. They use their second label, Alesia, for purchased fruit. At the conclusion of my tasting notes, I will list the other wines I tasted but which were all in such microscopic quantities (under 150 cases) that it is almost impossible to latch on to a few bottles unless you are on the mailing list. This is an impressive, well thought out operation, believing, certainly with Pinot Noir, in whole clusters, no racking, and a minimal, artisinal approach to winemaking. The yields are naturally very small because of the terroirs, rootstocks, and clones, and the wines are made to age.” - Robert Parker |
