2020 Villa Maria Reserve Pinot Noir

Suckling rates this Reserve Pinot even higher:

This has aromas of bark, bramble, ripe cherries, cloves, thyme and ash. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and bright acidity. Excellent precision with some toasty spice complexity to the berry fruit.

Top ratings on CellarTracker, too, with this 95-point review;

The 2020 readily opens up to perfumed red fruits like strawberry, raspberry, plum and cherry. The attack are ripe cherry. Swirling and introducing some air reveals floral notes and spices like cloves at mid palate. Finishing with minerals and salinity.

Silky tannins. Well balanced. Long finish.
A beautiful Pinot Noir that could be mistaken for a burgundy.

And #3 Pinot Noir for Cuisine Magazine:

An energetic and aromatically generous wine that delivers layers of cherries, berries, red florals and white pepper in a refined style that has silky ripe tannins and a seamless structure.

Vinous rates this outstanding, too.
