Wine Critic Reviews
Wine Enthusiast (89): The wine's aromas of sweet dark plums and pickled ginger put me in the mood for moo shu pork. A dominant tart-raspberries flavor is joined by traces of orange zest and chilled cucumber slices. The acidity is bracing.
Owen Bargreen (91): Coming mostly from the Atticus and Tuscowallame Estate Vineyards, the 2021 Raptor Ridge ‘Willamette Valley’ Pinot Noir offers a smooth texture with forward and juicy red fruits with citrus rind and cigar box flavors. Enjoy this excellent value now and over the next five to seven years.
