94 points Vinous: "A highly complex bouquet evokes fresh red and blue fruits, exotic spices and incense, and mineral and floral nuances build in the glass. Delivers suave black raspberry, bitter cherry, candied rose and spicecake flavors that show superb definition and spicy lift. Finishes with outstanding, floral-driven persistence, polished tannins and reverberating red fruit character." - Josh Raynolds
2012 vintage note
Goff Shea 2012 is everything you'd expect from the vintage and the vineyard: rich and robust Pinot noir. The wine enters the palate with good focus and energy, revealing flavors of bing cherry and strawberry melded with savory notes and barrel spice. Showing good flesh and extract the wine moves seamlessly through the mid palate into a long clean finish.
