"The 2020 Pinot Noir Heritage is a very pretty wine. Crushed red berry fruit, dried rose petal, incense, dried flowers and cinnamon all grace this transparent, wonderfully nuanced Pinot Noir. There's terrific energy and verve here. This is beautifully done."

"A stylish, mineral-driven version, with a swirl of red tea, savory and sous-bois notes leading off, before a core of damson plum and blood orange opens up. The long, earth- and chalk-tinged finish flows through with nice cut. Understated and lovely. Drink now through 2035. —J.M."
