95 Points - 2022 Gap’s Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir

Aromas of dusty maraschino cherry and red licorice waft from the glass of this deeply structured Pinot. There’s a mélange of fresh cherry, berry and plum flavors on the palate, alongside cinnamon and cedar notes. A streak of lemony acid drives through the midpalate leading to the powerfully tannic finish that will almost certainly unify over time.

 

94 Points - 2022 Nightwing Vineyard Pinot Noir

Scads of fresh cherry, spiced fig compote, lavender, cedar and tangerine peel scents waft from the nose of this intensely aromatic Pinot. The palate has considerable acidity, backed by enough tannin for aging and a mountain of cherry-berry fruit and cola spices. Pair this with salmon and caramelized mushrooms.

 

94 Points - 2022 Rodgers Creek Vineyard Pinot Noir

This wine swirls a deep garnet as aromas of fresh-crushed black cherry, plum skin, forest floor and sarsaparilla emerge from the glass. The richly textured palate oozes with blackberry fruit, cedar, sage and anise flavors. This wine has a ponderous tannic structure and should soften nicely after a few years in the cellar.

94 Points - 2022 Sangiacomo Vineyard Chardonnay

The nose of this richer-styled Chardonnay displays intriguing aromas of Bananas Foster and crème brûlée before morphing towards a Key lime and graham cracker crust energy on the palate. A few years in the cellar should round this out quite nicely.

93 Points - 2022 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

Baked black cherry and plum aromas dominate the nose of this native-yeast-fermented Pinot.

The finish presents a balance between the riper fruits, drying tannin and some juicy acidity.

 

93 Points - 2022 Sangiacomo Vineyard Pinot Noir

This Pinot sports a savory nose of dried cranberry, forest floor and shiitake mushroom. That energy carries right through to the palate, where the flavors of succulent black cherry and the snap of well- balanced tannin sit in a medium-bodied framework with just the right amount of oak.

 

93 Points - 2022 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

This is a darker and deeper style of Pinot, with black fruit, mushroom and fresh loam aromas dominating the nose. The palate displays black tea, cedar, clove and cherry-raspberry fruit before evolving into a grippy but balanced finish. Enjoy this alongside grilled lamb with rosemary.

 

93 Points - 2022 Wohler Vineyard Pinot Noir

Aromas of bright raspberry, cherry and soy mingle on the nose of this richly extracted RRV Pinot. The palate explodes with kirsch, cola and cocoa flavors playing on a decadently textured framework. This will age gracefully for ten to twenty years, if you want to wait that long.
