2021 Aegrina Vineyard Pinot Noir

"Fleshy Oregon blackberries and muddled mint leaves dominate the effusive aromatics from this single-vineyard bottling from rocky soils in the northern McMinnville AVA. The palate offers wild country berries, fruits, spiced strawberries, and smoky cloves. This wine is pure hedonism, with tart blackberries and mint savoury wild herbs, and a whack of white pepper lifts its brilliance at the finish. It is a dynamic wine with vibrance in its simple, straightforward deliciousness."  94 Points, Clive Pursehouse, Decanter

"The 2021 Pinot Noir Aegrina Vineyard is a veritable spice box on the nose, lifting up with cedary shavings, dusty dried flowers and crushed blackberries. Soft and round on the palate, this excels with its pure blend of red fruits and inner florals contrasted by a sour citrus tinge. The 2021 tapers off with tension, gently tannic and savory to the core." 92 Points, Eric Guido, Vinous Media

"Pouring a saturated magenta color, the 2021 Pinot Noir Aegrina Vineyard offers a more complex and layered aromatic profile, with botanical herbs, black raspberries, licorice, and turned earth. The palate brings forward a zest and tangy angular acidity, with a chalky texture and a more sanguine and iron mineral tone that drives the wine. It will likely improve with another year in bottle. Drink 2025-2032." 92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
