Intense fruit and spice aromas combined with a layered texture are prevailing attributes of this Pinot Noir blend. Aromas of red fruits of plum and vine-ripened raspberry abound then give way to red plum, toasted brioche and allspice. On the palate, black fruits emerge uniting with balanced acidity and fine-grained tannins that allows for mid-term cellaring. Unfined and unfiltered.

Wine Spectator: 90
A big, ripe style, with hints of black licorice to the well-structured black fruit flavors. Allspice and dark chocolate notes show on the dense finish. Drink now through 2025.
Wine Enthusiast: 93
This wine represents a handful of stellar vineyards, including Martaella, Cohn and Zio Tony Ranch. It shines in tones of forest floor, dense black fruit and cardamom, with lifted acidity forming a cohesive whole. It all broadens into a long, well-integrated finish. Editors' Choice.
