Rhys, 2016 Rhys Bearwallow Vineyard Pinot Noir (2 Bottle Set)
The 2016 Pinot Noir Bearwallow Vineyard offers up expressive aromas of black plums, wild berries, peonies and rich soil. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it’s supple and layered, with a juicy core of crunchy fruit, succulent acids and lovely declination.

Already integrated and giving, drink it over the next decade or more." - William Kelly, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
