Pinot Noir Estate 2021 Bethel Heights

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (92)

Matured in 25% new oak, the 2021 Pinot Noir Estate has a medium ruby-purple color and scents of blueberries, cranberries, woodsmoke, pipe tobacco and burnt orange peel. The light-bodied palate is austere with mineral-driven fruit, bright acidity, chalky tannins and a slight bitterness on the finish. There's a rusticity to this wine that's unusual for Bethel Heights.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Estate pours a jeweled ruby and has aromas of kirsch, forest herbs, and crushed flowers. Lush and approachable, with generous fruit up front, and silky in its rounded mouthfeel, its full-bodied frame is light on its feet, with lovely purity. Drink it over the next 4-6 years. It’s a killer value.

Vinous (92)

Classic to the core, the 2021 Pinot Noir Estate lifts from the glass with a pretty blend of rosemary and sage, complementing crushed wild berries. This balances savory and sweet with a pure blend of sour red berries offset by sour citrus hints and saline minerals, which add grip toward the close. This finishes with medium length and youthful tension, leaving a lingering tart cranberry crunch.
