(95+ points) The 2020 Pinot Noir Anna's Block is also brilliant, with crunchy black cherry and mulberry fruit as well as notes of iron, loamy earth, and darker herbs. This is a broader, more powerful, medium-bodied Pinot Noir offering beautiful tannins as well as outstanding balance. Fermented with 67% whole clusters and brought up in used barrels, it has tons of potential. As with the Sandy’s release, give it a few years.

Medium ruby, the 2020 Pinot Noir Anna's Block offers layered fruit and earth aromas: cranberry sauce and blackberry preserves feature accents of aniseed, mossy bark, forest floor and mushrooms. The palate is medium-bodied and light on its feet with bright acidity and a gently chalky frame and finishes with concentrated flavors and loads of spicy accents. This bright, elegant Pinot is ideal for the table. 845 cases produced.- EB

The 2020 Pinot Noir Anna's Block, a blend of 667 and 114 clones, is perfumed, deep and super-expressive. Dried herbs, tobacco, cedar, tobacco, mint and dried leaves all come together. Floral and savory top notes from the 60% whole clusters lend quite a bit of nuance throughout. By Antonio Galloni on June 2022
