"Notes of menthol and spice are present on the fresh mix of red and dark berry aromas that flash subtle spice and tea nuances. The very pliant, round and plump flavors are quite forward and almost easy-going while possess a seductively caressing mouthfeel that tighten up somewhat on the lingering and refreshing finish. While this will certainly age as it has the stuffing and balance to do so, this could easily be enjoyed young."

"The 2017 Pinot Noir Horseshoe Vineyard is one of the most distinctive wines in this range and also one of the Pinots that seemed to deal with the rigors of the growing season particularly well. Deep, mysterious and resonant, the 2017 has so much to say. Sweet tobacco, grilled herbs, menthol, licorice and earthy notes meld into a core of black cherry and plum fruit. The 2017 has a distinctive savory quality, even though it was made with fully destemmed fruit." -Vinous
