James Suckling, 94 Points 

"Dried strawberries with cedar, mahogany and pine. Savory. Medium- to full-bodied with creamy tannins. Juicy, complex and flavorful. Lots of character." 

Wine Enthusiast, 90 Points 

"The reserve’s bright acidity and silky tannins feel like an even match, with black cherry and bittersweet chocolate flavors dominating the crisp palate. There’s also a savory touch of smoked brisket in the background. The aromas are a nice perfume of cherries and earth." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Four Graces 2021 Dundee Hills Reserve Pinot Noir displays a dark ruby color. Nuanced aromas of dark cherries, spice and mulberry set the tone. Juicy black cherry coats the palate with notes of vanilla and spice highlighted in the background. The use of new French oak barrels in this wine supports the fruit and adds a touch of baking spice aroma where the contribution of older French oak barrels allows the tannins to develop gracefully over time. The finish is silky and long, which is a characteristic of Dundee Hills Pinot Noir."
