Score 92/100 · Drink 2020-2025, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Sep 2020

The 2018 Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard offers lavender and bergamot-laced red and blue berry fruits on the nose with earthy touches. Medium-bodied, the palate is surprisingly fresh and juicy, with a firm frame and detailed finish.

Moving to the Pinot Noirs, these are all brilliant wines. The 2018 Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard from the Anderson Valley offers a vivid ruby/purple hue as well as great aromatics of Bing cherries, raspberries, crushed violets, and crushed stone. It has the classic savoriness that's common from Anderson Valley and is medium to full-bodied, with wonderful fruit, ripe tannins, and a great finish.

The 2018 Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard is dark, fleshy and super-expressive. Dark cherry, spice, menthol and new leather all infuse the 2018 with striking depth as well as nuance. This is such a gorgeous and inviting Anderson Valley Pinot. Rose petal, spice, blood orange and bright red cherry fruit give this vibrant Pinot tons of appeal. This is such a beautiful wine.
