Wine Advocate
Review Date: 12/2023The 2021 Pinot Noir Magic Moments Hyde Vineyard comes from vines planted in 1979, and the wine was matured for 17 months in 80% new French oak. It takes you on an aromatic journey, beginning with raspberry, strawberry and pomegranate and then opening to leather, tobacco, mixed tea leaves, underbrush, aniseed and bitters. The medium-bodied palate features concentrated, youthfully coiled flavors. It's light on its feet with finely chalky tannins and fireworks of fresh acidity, and it has a very long, spicy finish. This pairs power and latency and will be long lived in the cellar. 113 cases were made. (EB)

The 2021 Pinot Noir Magic Moments Hyde Vineyard was all destemmed and brought up in 80% new French oak. This medium ruby-hued Carneros Pinot Noir has fabulous aromatics of wild strawberries, raspberries, underbrush, and white pepper. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it's another seamless, pure, incredibly polished 2021 offering ripe, integrated tannins and a great finish.

The Wine Independent
Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, the 2021 Pinot Noir Magic Moments Hyde Vineyard zips out of the glass with vivacious notes of cranberry sauce, Bing cherries, and wild strawberries, followed by hints of cracked black pepper, garrigue, and moss. The medium-bodied palate completely fills the mouth with energetic red berry and earthy flavors, supported by fine-grained tannins and bags of freshness, finishing with an herbal lift.
