Oaky and buttery with white pepper, lemon, quince, and minerals. High alcohol and acid with a medium finish. Great match with grilled halibut. — 6 months ago
Light straw color, taste of Granny Smith apple, nice hit of acid. — 2 years ago
Another excellent Testarossa Pinot….this one on the nose was as fruity as expected but on the palate more refined, slightly earthy even, probably the age….agree that the Testarossas bring darker tones that distinguishes them from other good Pinots…perfect with pan seared duck breast, befitting the season — 2 years ago
18’ Miner Rosella’s Pinot . Color resembles a ruby/purple. Nose fresh picked strawberries, cranberry, brown sugar mist. Opened it over a week ago and threw the cork on it. Still a full -bodied beast of a Pinot. Strong cherry, red berry flavors to it, sassafras, slightly non-expressive finish. Can’t miss if you’re patient for another year or two. One of if not the best thing I’ve enjoyed from Miner. Cheers! Wait another 2/3 years / decanting for 2 hours +. — 2 years ago
The 2021 Pinot Noir Rosella's Vineyard is bright and effusive. Crushed red berry fruit, flowers, dried herbs and a kiss of sweet French oak are nicely lifted. This racy, exuberant Pinot is quite the charmer. It, too, will benefit from a bit of cellaring. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, November 2023)

Big and rich but harmonious. Probably was at its peak a year or two ago but still in a good spot. — 2 months ago
