"The 2018 Pinot Noir is magnificent. Rich, deep and powerful, with tremendous resonance, the 2018 is positively stellar. A range of floral and savory notes develop in the glass, adding myriad layers of nuance in a Pinot that marries intensity with translucence. Sweet dark cherry, mint, sage, rose petal and blood orange build into the stunning finish. The 2018 is one of the very finest wines I have tasted from Mindego Ridge. I was simply blown away by these wines from Mindego Ridge and proprietors David and Stacey Gollnick. But I was not entirely surprised, given the stratospheric level winemaker Ehren Jordan achieved at his own Failla label and the strength of the vintage in the Santa Cruz Mountains. The 2018s are truly magical wines that speak with such eloquence as to the potential, character and world-class pedigree of this site."
