Cattleya Description

The vineyard is at a high elevation on Sonoma Coast. The wine offers a deep ruby-purple color. Gorgeously perfumed aromas, with notes of red roses and red cherries, jump out of the glass. The palate is lush and silky textured. Loaded with nicely balanced fruit and the right amount of acidity. Flavors of pomegranate, black raspberries, and wild strawberries are beautifully balanced within this full-bodied Pinot, which offers very generous fruit and enough freshness. The wine has a long silky finish.

Jeb Dunnuck: 95 Points

A semi-opaque, deep ruby with a purple hint, the 2021 Pinot Noir Cuvee Number Eight takes on a darker profile, with wet stone, blackberry, pepper, and grilled rosemary. Full-bodied, it brings more structure, with ripe tannins, iron-rich earth, and kirsch as well as fresh lift on the finish. Drink 2025-2035.

Wine Enthusiast: 94 Points

Wonderful violet and rose petal aromas lead to juicy black cherry and black currant flavors in this medium- to full-bodied, lightly tannic wine. Its concentrated fruit core keeps pumping out delicious berries through the sip and the lingering finish. Best from 2025-2032.

James Suckling: 92 Points

Perfumed and unique nose of mulberries, orange slices, sweet spices, burdock root and lotus seeds. It’s medium-bodied with sleek tannins and a soft, supple texture. Plump and moreish. Drink now.

Wine Spectator: 91 Points

Delivers a lush, hard-to-resist core of plum and boysenberry preserves that roll through, laced with anise and sweet spices on the broad finish. For fans of the not-shy style. Drink now through 2026. 475 cases made.
