Wine Advocate, 98 Points 

"Made from the original 1969 vines from their own “West Block” clones, the 2015 Pinot Noir West Block has a medium to deep ruby-purple color and an incredible fragrance of roses and potpourri, with underlying raspberry leaves, pomegranate, wild thyme and fallen leaves notes. Wow—talk about a solid frame—wonderfully firm, fine tannins and a wicked backbone of acid support and intensely perfumed flavors, finishing with epic persistence." 

Vinous, 94 Points 

"The 2015 Pinot Noir West Block captures the full pedigree and personality of this site. Intense in its aromatics, fruit and structure, the 2015 has it all. Rose petal, lavender, licorice and menthol wrap around a core of intense dark fruit in this sumptuous Pinot Noir. Ample and creamy, the 2015 is showing beautifully today."
