91 Points - Wine Enthusiast

The wine's earthy aromas of loam and wild mushrooms are joined by a sweet blackberry and lilac note that is perfume-like. Vigorous acidity and silky tannins back flavors of tangy red raspberries, cacao nibs and a trace of spicy Ligurian olive oil. Such a lively Pinot Noir.

91 Points - James Suckling

This has a dusty character with spices, chocolate orange, red plums, cherries and blueberries. Smooth and supple with a medium body and silky texture. Refreshing and flavorful.

90 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2021 Chardonnay Breaking Ground was matured for 12 months in 21% new French oak barrels and puncheons, plus an additional five months in stainless steel. It has open-knit aromas of quince paste, papaya, baking spice, honeycomb and toast. The light-bodied palate is ripe, spicy and textural with bright acidity and a long, honeyed finish.
