Double Gold "Best of the Best" - 2011
92 + Editors Choice
"Bill Hatcher's follow-up to his excellent 2005 is even better-graceful, balanced, lovely wine. Sweet cherry/berry fruit is matched to spice, light toast, light chocolate, malted milk and vanilla custard streaks it sounds oakier then it tastes, the fruit is the star here."

89 - "Despite some firm tannins, this has an open texture, with a good range of currant, loam and spice flavors that emphasize harmony over power. The finish lingers enticingly. Best from 2008 through 2012." 440 cases made. - H.S. (12/07)
90 - "Smooth and open-textured, showing cherry aromas and flavors, with a loamy soil note that adds depth as the finish lingers beautifully against refined tannins. Drink now through 2012." 440 cases made. (05/07)
90 - "Plummy, black cherry aromas are found in the nose of the 2003 Pinot Noir, a sweet, medium-bodied effort. Revealing appealing breadth, this chunky black cherry and blackberry - flavored effort displays outstanding density as well as ripe, yet highly present tannin."
90 - "Firm, with solid cherry and blackberry flavors...long, focused finish." (09/05)
