Jeb Dunnuck: 98 Points

Stunning aromatics lift from the 2021 Pinot Noir Eola-Amity Hills which pours a jeweled ruby and offers a mix of red and black fruits an amazing floral perfume pine and crushed stones all well-interwoven. Seamless on the palate this medium to full-bodied red has a silky mineral texture with velvety tannins and gorgeous concentration throughout. With long-lasting energy and outstanding purity it?s hard to resist now and feels as though it will last for the next 15 or more years. This is one of the best wines I have ever tasted from Mimi Casteel.

Vinous: 95 Points

Savory herbs earth tones flowery underbrush and ashen stone complicate a core of crushed black cherries as the 2021 Pinot Noir entices the senses. This splashes across the palate with ripe red and blue fruits steadily gaining in tension as saline minerals and a liquid floral concentration coat the senses. A web of sweet tannins resides alongside tart blackberries and hints of mint as the 2021 tapers off dramatically long and staining yet still fresh. The future is very promising here. - By Eric Guido on May 2024
