// Single vineyard Coal River Valley, 25% whole bunch, basket pressed to old oak barriques for 10 months
"This RDJ has all the Coal River qualities but with even more depth and drive than a lot of wines coming out of the region. That means blackberries on the palate alongside a cranberry-laced acidity and an almost raspy tannin that’s long and fine." - L'appel, Winemaker
"This ticks lots of boxes for neat and tidy, fancy-feeling pinot noir. Slick texture with a little chalky pucker. An array of cherry, black, red, even white, jostling with red plum and cranberry. Swishes of dried herbs, light, woody spice, faint truffle. Quietly complex, tightly wound, a cool, yet bright and satisfying red wine of charisma, poise and good stead. if anything, just missing a little x-factor to take it to the next level, such is its balance and fine stead." - 93 points, Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
