96 Points - Jeb Dunnuck:  Coming from a great site in the heart of the Santa Lucia Highlands, the 2023 Pinot Noir Rosella's Vineyard displays a medium ruby hue and reveals a brilliant, Volnay-like perfume of sweet redcurrants, framboise, spring flowers, and damp, foresty earth. Medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, and incredibly elegant on the palate, it has nicely integrated tannins and acidity, no hard edges, and a great finish. It shows the cooler, even, lengthy style of the vintage and will evolve gracefully over the coming decade.

96 Points - Wine Enthusiast:  Bold, lush, comforting and downright unctuous aromas of black cherry, cola and mint show on the inviting nose of this single-vineyard expression from the Franscioni family. The rich palate pairs maraschino and luxardo cherry flavors with chai and cappuccino elements.

95 Points - James Suckling:  #83 Top 100 Wines of the USA 2025 | Gorgeous aromas of red flowers and holiday spices are followed by vivid fruit flavors on an elegant texture. So layered in cinnamon, clove, cedar and pure black cherry flavors. Medium tannins and fresh acidity add a nice lift on the palate and lingering finish. Drink now or hold.
