"The 2015 Pinot Noir Vanguard is a stunningly beautiful, dramatic wine endowed with massive flavor intensity and sheer richness, featuring inky blue/purplish fruit, menthol, licorice and spice. There is not much subtlety here, and yet this wine is simply glorious. Fruit sources are Sanford & Benedict, Radian and Bentrock. (Drink between 2020-2030)" -Vinous, 95VM

"A bright, nervy wine, the 2021 Pinot Noir Radian captures all the natural intensity of this site on the far edge of the Sta. Rita Hills. Bright acids and veins of minerality infuse the 2021 with tremendous character. Dark red/purplish fruit, lavender, crushed rocks, graphite and dried herbs are some of the many notes that race across the palate. This just sizzles with energy. It's a great example from the western edge of the appellation. (Drink between 2025-2036)" -Vinous, 97VM

"A deep well of minerality and crunchiness marries forest fruit, plums and mixed cherries, showing star anise and seaweed through the saline finish. Unfurls with expressiveness and length. Drink or hold." - James Suckling, 95JS

"Slightly deep ruby/purple-hued and nearly opaque, the 2023 Pinot Noir Bentrock Vineyard shows gorgeous purity, with black raspberries, hints of cassis, graphite, smoky oak, and subtle floral notes. Medium-bodied and layered on the palate, it’s flawlessly balanced, with ripe tannins and a great finish. Simply brilliant, it should drink well over the coming decade or more. Drink 2025-2035." -Jeb Dunnuck, 96JD

"So much energy and salt, anchoring forest fruit, boysenberries and crushed violets against a tug of earth. Mineral, filigreed and refined, this is capable of aging for decades yet provides tremendous short-term pleasure. Drink or hold." -James Suckling, 98JS
