2008 Pinot Noir, Rochioli Vineyard, River Block
96 Points – Linda Murphy, WineReviewOnline, March 2011
96 Points – “I cannot remember a finer Farrell Pinot Noir than this one, nor a better 2008 California Pinot, period. It has amazing purity and focus, with beautifully ripened fruit flavors (strawberry, tart cherry, pomegranate, cranberry), an inviting, truffle and spice aroma, and uncommon vibrancy. This is an ideal example of a wine that is lighter in color than many New World Pinot Noirs – it’s translucent, in fact – yet it delivers crystalline flavors, great complexity, crackling acidity and best of all succulence.” Linda Murphy, winereviewonline.com, March 29, 2011
