2024 Hidden Block Pinot Noir
94 Pts, Jeb Dunnuck
Hidden Block carries the most red fruit of the Spring Ridge pinot noir blocks and the wine feels like high summer, with juicy strawberry and cherry aromatics. The palate has a fine texture, with cocoa powder tannins and a precise and delicate rose petal finish.Recommend decanting and enjoying now or cellaring for enjoyment over the next 7-10 years.

Critical Acclaim
“The 2024 Pinot Noir Estate Spring Ridge Vineyard Hidden Block comes from the first Pinot Noir vines planted by Neely in 1997, all Dijon clone along a ridge line that gets warmer nighttime temperatures. Textured, tight, and completely destemmed, it has a matchsticky quality beneath a medium-bodied layering of strawberry fruit, somewhat resinous on the back of the palate with supple tannins and nicely interwoven oak, the wine aged 10 months in French oak, 20% new. Drink now through 2034.”
