"The 2020 Pinot Noir Reserve still shows slight reduction in the form of a touch of flint, but is nonetheless promising and made with a knowing, light touch. The body is as translucent as the color—fine-boned, scented with conifer, bright and fresh in its tender, red-fruited aroma. This is bright, fresh and smooth and has a scented, tender quality that is only enhanced by that fine, web-like tannin structure and bright, polished acidity. This is Pinot that is truly allowed to be Pinot—no fat, no makeup, just pristine and lovely, pure fruit. (Bone-dry)"
