2021 | Beaux Freres The Upper Terrace Pinot Noir | Ribbon Ridge Manchego and Parmesan marl—gray and greenA more transparent medium ruby, the 2021 Pinot Noir The Upper Terrace takes on a more woodsy and dark profile while remaining graceful. In the glass, it reveals notes of pine, cherry liqueur, wet asphalt, and rosemary. Medium to full bodied, with ripe tannins and more earth tones, it has the bones to last well over the coming 10 12 years. 97 Jeb Dunnuck
