The 2019 Cuvee aux Antipodes Pinot Noir is charming, supple, precise and full. The wine has volume and voluptuousness without billowing, and it shows a graphite framework of tannins that are absolutely in support of and in sync with the black fruit. On the nose, there’s black cherry, raspberry pip, blood, dried thyme, freshly turned earth and jasmine tea. In the mouth, blood orange acidity nestles into the chalky tannins, and the wine feels distinctly fresh and poised. Exciting drinking here. Superb. 14% alcohol, sealed under Diam. 421 cases.

The 2018 Cuvee aux Antipodes Pinot Noir represented the earliest ever harvest. “It's the only time we've picked everything by the end of March, and the only time we picked the Home Vineyard in March,” says Winemaker Paul Pujol. “There was a month difference in picking dates up here on this vineyard between 2017 and 2018—same vines.”
On the nose, the wine is composed and restrained, with perfect integration of fruit and tannin in the mouth. There is literally no point at which the tannins “begin,” and certainly they trail long into the finish. The fruit is the loom upon which the tannins are woven, and the picture at the end is one of harmony. It is a seamless wine built for pleasure, with a cascade of clove spice, red fruits, arnica/star anise/fennel, dried herbs and saline acidity that slowly fades into the far distance. What a wine! 14% alcohol, sealed under Diam.

2021 Prophet's Rock Dry Riesling

The 2021 Dry Riesling is restrained and complex on the nose. Matured fully in old oak barrels, the wine shows very little evidence of this aromatically. Instead of appearing overtly spicy and “of oak,” the fruit leads with preserved citrus, yuzu, brine, white flowers and wet limestone. In the mouth, the wine is softly framed and chalky, with a gentle cloth-y texture and white tea phenolics through the finish. Taut, a little febrile, and totally layered, this is exciting drinking now and a magnificent cellaring proposition for the next couple of decades. It's worth mentioning that I believe this wine to be insanely underpriced for the quality and site-specific eloquence that it offers. Call it a gem from the New World. 12.5% alcohol, sealed under Diam.
