94pts Jeb Dunnuck "Classy forest floor, mulberry, black raspberry, spice, and incense notes emerge from the 2017 Pinot Noir Gap's Crown, a beautifully elegant, seamless, classic Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. This is a great vineyard."
93pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "The 2017 Pinot Noir Gap's Crown Vineyard was made with 10% whole cluster and aged in 50% new oak. It's medium ruby-purple and reluctantly opens to black cherries, pipe tobacco, jamon iberico, forest floor and accents of dried lilac. It's medium-bodied and silky with expansive layers structured by mouthwatering acidity and a grainy frame, finishing long."
