James Suckling, 94 Points
"This beautiful pinot noir shows aromas of cherries, almonds and earth. Floral character, too. Medium body, firm and round tannins and a cool and long finish. Drink now or hold."
Wine Enthusiast, 93 Points
"A barrel-selection, top-of-the-line cuvée, this is intensely aromatic with black cherry, soft leather and baking spices in play. Flavors focus in the midpalate, leading into supple tannins and a smattering of cocoa powder. Overall it's a big wine, full flavored, balanced and already drinking very well."
Wine Spectator, 90 Points
"Structured and slightly brooding, with black cherry and wet stone aromas and densely layered plum and dark tea flavors that are framed by taut tannins. Drink now through 2022."
From the Winery:
"The Casteel Pinot Noir is always intended to be the best expression of our estate in each vintage. Two blocks planted in 1994 and 1996 on the most beautiful slope on the west side of the vineyard have given us some of the most compelling wines year after year, and they are always better together."
Alcohol: 13.7%
