92 Points – “Youthful, exotic wine.  It’s the most flamboyant of the Alysian Pinot Noirs.  It’s actually well-mannered and elegant, with scents of violets and wild berries, and a palate of forward, plump blackberry and Bing cherry fruit.  While enjoyable now, this teenager will likely benefit from a year or two in the cellar, when the complexity elements currently in the background come out of their shell.  For the really patient, give it a decade.” Linda Murphy, winereviewonline.com, March 2011
