Score 94/100 · Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Jun 2023
Matured for 16 months in 73% new oak, the 2020 Pinot Noir Rochioli Riverblock Vineyard is exuberant and fruity, its red cherry fruit accented by tones of charcuterie, tobacco, bitters and allspice. The palate is surprisingly soft and supple, with addicting, spicy flavors. It unwinds and gains intensity as it spends time in the glass, so offer it an hour or two in the decanter. 452 cases were made.
