Bigger in style, with a dense structure. Sassasfras and iodine lift ripe, roasted cherry fruit.
91 points, Wine Advocate (#192, Feb. 2011): "The three Pinot Noirs I tasted under the Neely label all had advanced medium garnet colors as well as complex aromatics of pomegranate, apple skins, herbs and earth. My favorite is Neely’s 2008 Pinot Noir Hidden Block Spring Ridge Vineyard, which possesses sweeter fruit, more complexity and a Cote de Beaune-like red fruit character intermixed with spice and earth."
Highly Recommended, Decanter Magazine (Sept. 2012)
