"The 2021 Pinot Noir Rice-Spivak Vineyard is fabulous. Dark and mysterious in the glass, the 2021 offers up an exotic mélange of dark cherry, spice, new leather, licorice, graphite and dried herbs. The 2021 is vivid and explosive, but also light on its feet. The 50% stems are beautifully integrated. What a classy, gorgeous wine. Ross Cobb has worked with this fruit since 2003." -Vinous

"The 2021 Pinot Noir Rice Spivak Vineyard is youthfully coiled at this stage and deserves several years in the cellar to continue to unwind. Made with 50% whole clusters, the nose offers alluring red cherry, blood orange, pipe tobacco and earthy undertones. The medium-bodied palate is much more open at this stage, bursting with concentrated cherry flavors. It has a finely chalky texture, vibrant yet seamless acidity and a very long, spicy finish."
