Limited release from Pahlmeyer's new Sonoma Coast vineyard.

97 Points Jeb Dunnuck: A bright red ruby hue, the Wayfarer 2022 Pinot Noir The Estate is lifted in the glass and has a lot of fresh, bright notes of rosy perfume, grenadine, rosemary, and sweet earth. Medium-bodied, it has a vibrant energy and savory drive on the palate, with notes of salty earth and tea leaf, a light umami richness, ripe tannins, and evenly balanced acidity. It is lovely all the way through and is going to show its best if given more time in bottle. Drink 2026-2040."

94 Points Robert Parker: "The Wayfarer 2022 Pinot Noir The Estate has bright, ringing scents of tangerine oil, black tea leaves, charcuterie and dusty earth accenting raspberry and strawberry fruit. The medium-bodied palate is bright and firmly structured, with sleek, layered fruit and a long, detailed finish. It will be long lived in bottle."

"...One of the most impressive vineyard visits I’ve made this year was to the Wayfarer Vineyard in Sonoma Coast’s relatively newly formed Fort Ross-Seaview AVA (established in 2011). I cannot say that I’ve seen a happier looking vineyard in a long time, and by “happy” I refer to the immaculately trimmed, healthy, vivid green vines supporting well-balanced canopies and crop loads. And what a site! Apart from being incredibly remote, down a long, winding mountain road paved by gorgeous old redwoods and leading away from the Pacific Ocean, it’s perched fairly high in the mountains at about 1,100 feet. So, altitude and proximity to the ocean both have a cooling influence, which can be felt when you drive up from the warmer Sonoma plains. But don’t let the cool air fool you—this mountaintop vineyard is a real sun trap!"
