From Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, "Pale to medium ruby-purple in color, the 2015 Pinot Noir Grace Benoist Ranch has a savory, sautéed herbs-laced nose over a core of red currants, cranberries and Bing cherries plus hints of dusty earth and iron ore. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with savory/earthy flavors, framed by chewy tannins and finishing with a lot of interesting layers." 92 Points From Wine Enthusiast, "Earthy and robustly expansive on the palate, this wine is full of black cherry, oak and bark elements—complementary expressions that work well within a medium-bodied context. A smoky element of forest floor lingers on the finish." 90 Points From Jeb Dunnuck, "... a deeply colored effort that has medium-bodied notes of red currants, cherries, campfire and forest floor. It has plenty of texture and a charming, rounded, delicious style ideal for drinking over the coming 4-5 years." 91 points
