Rhys Vineyards has become a benchmark for California Pinot Noir with a Burgundian mindset—low yields, native fermentations, whole cluster use, and minimal new oak. The Bearwallow Vineyard, tucked into a cool pocket of Anderson Valley, offers the most immediately charming of their single-vineyard wines.

The 2020 vintage delivers pure red cherry, rose petal, spice, and forest floor, all wrapped in silky tannins and vibrant acidity. There's a whisper of stemmy savoriness from whole clusters, but it’s integrated and lifted. Compared to Rhys’ Santa Cruz Mountains sites, Bearwallow feels a touch softer and more open—but still structured for aging.

It’s Pinot Noir with clarity, detail, and no excess—a wine that speaks softly but leaves a lasting impression.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2020 Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard is a very pretty wine. Bright and effusive, with lovely red berry fruit, the 2020 is delicious right out of the gate. Sweet spice and floral accents give this mid-weight Pinot terrific lift. The 2020 is not super-complex, but it is quite tasted and expressive today. Drink it over the next handful of years." -Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

"Beginning on a restrained note, the 2020 Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard progressively exudes aromas of black cherry, wild blueberry and violets. The palate is lush and seamless, with deft concentration at its core. The finish is long and harmonious, with deliciously juicy, red-fruited flavors and precise, delicate yet grainy tannins. Already drinking beautifully, this provides an opportunity to enjoy a Rhys vineyard-designate Pinot Noir long before the Santa Crus Mountains lineup has unlocked its full potential." -Matthew Luczy
