The Eyrie Vineyards Roland Green Pinot Noir 2022 (750ML)

96 Points, Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck.com: "More muscular, the 2022 Pinot Noir Roland Green has more depth to its ruby red color, but it’s still transparent. The nose benefits from a little air on opening, revealing pure black raspberries, cherry blossoms, dark earth, mossy forest floor, and sweet herbs. It has broader shoulders and a heartier, more muscular feel on the palate, with an expansive structure, so it can stand up to a lot. Built for the long haul, it’s going to hold on for decades. Drink 2025-2040. (Drink between 2025-2040)" 08/24

96 Points, Clive Pursehouse, Decanter: “The Roland Green Pinot Noir really shows off its elegance and balance. With inviting aromas of rich red fruit, wet soil, and fresh mint leaves, it leads into a palate filled with complex savoury notes. The tannins are impressively smooth, making it a real pleasure to drink, especially for such a young wine. A bright pop of acidity keeps it fresh and lively, tying everything together beautifully.” 07/24

95 Points, Michael Alberty, Wine Enthusiast: "Roland Green is five acres of Pommard and Wadenswil clones planted at 540-720 feet elevation in the Dundee Hills. Its raspberry, sweet pea flowers and Ponderosa bark aromas are mesmerizing. Texture-wise, this is your favorite pair of corduroys matched with fine-grained tannins and flavors of pie cherries, black pepper, caraway seeds and black pepper. Enjoy now until 2039." 12/24

94+ Points, Eric Guido, Vinous: "The 2022 Pinot Noir Roland Green is savory to the core, with a darkly floral bouquet that blends earth tones and exotic spices with hints of tomato leaf, lavender and blackberries. It opens with a gentle inner sweetness and silky textures as masses of ripe red and blue fruits slowly saturate, developing a mineral tinge toward the close. The 2022 leaves the palate stained in primary concentration as a lick of sour citrus adds contrast and fine-grained tannins coat the senses. Deep and complex, with immaculate balance, the Roland Green is the total package. (Drink between 2026-2036)" 08/24
