Burghound, October 2020, Score: 92
A slightly more deeply pitched nose is a bit more perfumed with its layered aromas of both red and dark berries along with similar floral influences. There is better volume and richness to the more powerful and more obviously structured flavors that culminate in a dusty, sappy, serious and youthfully austere finale. This is clearly built to age and a wine that is going to require extended patience. This too is worth checking out provided you have the patience to cellar it for up to another decade. Outstanding. Drink: 2028+

Wine Advocate, February 2021, Score: 92
Pale ruby-purple, the 2018 Pinot Noir Terraces has a nose of blueberries and earth with touches of dried herbs, pepper and citrus. The palate is medium-bodied and firm but ripe, with pleasantly broody fruits and a flavorful finish. This has the structure and flesh to age well in bottle. 425 cases were made.

James Suckling, March 2022, Score: 94
An open and rather soft pinot, offering strawberry and cherry aromas with some stems. Cranberry, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a round, creamy texture and a juicy finish. Sheers off at the finish. Drink or hold.

Jeb Dunnuck, January 2021, Score: 90
The 2018 Pinot Noir Terraces offers a Burgundian, medium-bodied style as well as lots of peppery herbs, spice, and cherry and mulberry-like fruits. It's complex and has a bright, juicy spine of acidity as well as a clean finish. It's going to evolve for 5-7 years. Drink 2021 - 2028
