    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    The complex sandstone and shale Bearwallow Wolfey soils of the Bearwallow vineyard, tucked away at the ‘deep end’ of the Anderson Valley, have produced a Pinot Noir of pure allure in 2019. Sweet red cherry and fragrant incense notes with red berried fruit running through its core and a spine of minerality at the finish. This is at once plump, yet also sumptuous and supple, with a note of wild forest, earth and light black tea on the finish.

    Antonio Galloni,
    Vinous
    The 2019 Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard is a powerful, searing wine. I am not sure I have tasted a Bearwallow with this much sheer intensity. Black cherry, mocha, gravel, cloves and licorice imbue this somber, backward Pinot with quite a bit of complexity. Readers should be in no rush here. The 2019 is an exceptional Bearwallow.
