Medium in body, fresh and driven, the 2022 Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands) is pretty forward in its red-fruited profile, but it also possesses a core of stern, rocky minerality. An enticing air of highlands herbs and sweet lavender adds further intrigue. Juicy, sweet raspberry, clove and a kick of toasty French oak sweetness make the 2022 an inviting choice for drinking over the next several years. (Billy Norris, Vinous, August 2024)

2022 vintage. Got this at a ridiculous resto cost. Picked up a case but may hafta pour it btg. Nice fruit/tannins balance and a refreshing change from the usual RRV/Sonoma stylings. Closer, stylistically, to Fort Ross/Seaview efforts at 35% less $$wise. 8.15.24.
