"The 2015 Bella Vida Vineyard is a translucent colored Pinot Noir, which opens with aromatics of guava, red currant, sandalwood, red cherry syrup and orange rind flavors. The palate is plush and layered, showing ripe strawberry, guava purée, kumquat and loganberry with wild mushroom flavors. This is a deep and delicious wine that will cellar beautifully for a decade or more. (Best 2017-2027) - July, 2017 (OB)"

"This top tier effort captures all the most distinctive characteristics of good Oregon Pinot Noir. Black cherry fruit, a liberal dash of cola, a touch of sassafras and a dusting of baking spice combine in a burst of flavor. Delicious already, it will drink well for another half decade or longer."

"(25% new French oak) Lurid red. Sexy, spice-tinged dark berry and spicecake aromas show excellent clarity and complementary vanilla and candied rose nuances. Palate-staining black raspberry, bitter cherry and floral pastille flavors sweeten up slowly in the midpalate and pick up a hint of five-spice powder. Finishes smooth, sappy and gently tannic, displaying strong persistence and resonating floral and vanilla notes. - Josh Raynolds"

"Once again the Bella Vida rings the bell as the best of a fine lineup of Pinots from Fullerton. Rich, ripe, powerful fruit flavors mix strawberry jam, black cherry syrup, coffee, cola and brown spices. It's not a wine you have to wait on; enjoy it now through the early 2020s. - PAUL GREGUTT"
