Producer Description

This garnet-colored gem of a Pinot Noir is youthful and vibrant. Boisterous red berry fruit aromas are mimicked on the palate with flavors of red raspberry, Bing cherry, pomegranate, pink peppercorn, and a hint of floral potpourri, supported by earthier notes of clay and leather. The mouthfeel is bright and lively with linear tannins. The wine finishes long and supple with hints of caramel and spiced clove, a signature characteristic of Grace Benoist Ranch Pinot Noir. Ethereal and soft with a fresh core of acidity, it pairs beautifully with a variety of cuisines and culinary dishes.

James Suckling: 94 Points

Beautifully ripe strawberry, bark and pine needle aromas with dried flowers. Dried tea, too. Orange peel. Medium to full body. Plenty of soft tannins. Earth. Granite. Pumice. Plenty of flavor. Very structured. Broad spine. Drink after 2026.

Wine Spectator: 92 Points

Offers gently mulled mulberry and blackberry fruit that hold center stage, with nice briary energy running underneath. Shows a light kiss of toast and anise on the finish, as the fruit lingers steadily. Drink now through 2028. 12,770 cases made.
