2016 Block B Pinot Noir:
“A brambly, sappy pinot that has an earthy and strongly savory overall feel to it. Fragrant herbs, orange zest, pot-pourri and dried cherries with abundant baking spices, leading to a pal-ate with a central thread of sa-vory tannins carrying spicy dried cherries. Drink or hold.”
Score 94
2016 Marion’s Vineyard Pinot Noir:
“This has a very pure, natural feel with an array of ripe, spicy red cherries and berries, as well as a sappy, undergrowth thread. The palate is beautifully rendered on long, earthy tannins and a juicy, deep-set finish. Drink or hold.”
