James Suckling
Reviewed October 2023A firm and linear red with polished and tight tannins that are well-formed giving this serious focus. It’s medium-bodied with a racy sensitivity and length. Chewy classic way. Long and framed. Just a baby. Just like it was on release.

Wine Advocate
The 2019 McCrone Vineyard Pinot Noir leads with coffee grounds and star anise, hints of bone broth and black cherry. In the mouth, the wine is really starting to hit straps. At four years of age, it is still emerging from its inchoate youth, but it is already showing such expressive vibrancy. The 40% whole bunch is sitting so nicely within the structure and profile now. What a wine to finish the 2021 lineup with. (EL)

Vinous
The 2019 Pinot Noir McCrone has benefited from some time in bottle. It is starting to lose the shackles of youth and open up. It remains structured, but its edges are rounding and it is blossoming into its frame. (RG)
