"From the highest and steepest section of the vineyard next door, the 2020 Pinot Noir SWK Vineyard pours a deeper hue and reveals notes of wild black raspberry, dark gravelly earth, and brushy herbs. Medium to full-bodied, on the palate the rich concentration remains focused, while a more chiseled structure emerges, with its richness being held close to the vest, remaining more firm and clenched at this youthful stage. It has fine tannins and a more mountainous feel, with notes of grenadine, cherry, toasted herbs, and incense. This is another exceptional wine from Occidental that will certainly deserve time in cellar and be long-lived. Drink 2025-2045." Audrey Frick Jeb Dunnuck
