Wine Advocate Review
Rated 94
The 2022 Pinot Noir Chehalem Mountain Vineyard was matured for 18 months in 50% new French oak. It bursts from the glass with oodles of raspberry and strawberry fruit, plus foresty, botanical undertones. The medium-bodied palate is more open at this early stage, offering concentrated, spicy berry flavors. It's structured by grainy tannins and mouthwatering acidity and has a very long, layered finish. It will benefit from 3-5 years in the cellar. Drinking Window 2025-2040.
