Score 93/100 · Drink 2025-2035, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Dec 2024

The 2022 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard was fermented with around 25% whole clusters and matured in about 30% new oak. It has a very pale ruby color and alluring scents of cranberry, rhubarb, forest floor and Angostura bitters. The light-bodied palate is elegantly styled, offering concentrated yet detailed flavors and compelling spicy accents. It’s structured by silky tannins and juicy acidity and has a long, nuanced finish.

From one of the highest elevations in this vineyard, the 2022 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard is a transparent red hue and is aromatic of ripe cherries, spices, mossy earth, and a lightly gamey but clean earth note. It is an elegant and lifted expression of the Shea Vineyard, with bright acidity, fine tannins, and a more linear feel, and as it opens, it starts to show its broader shoulders and its deeper notes come through. Drink 2025-2040.
