Far Mountain Description
Myrna has concentration and powerful structure. Given 2020’s growing conditions with average warmer temperatures creating more phenolics which translate into density , great texture, and long finish. The wine opens with lifted aromatics and stone fruit combines with lime characters. On the palate the wine expands, bringing layers of texture and energy. The bright acidity and salinity, signature of this wine, makes its flavors last with a long lingering and persistent finish.
Wine Enthusiast: 94 Points
This well-balanced and grandly structured wine layers toast, almonds and a hint of wood smoke over Bosc pears, fennel bulb slices and marzipan for a rich blend of fruits and savory accents.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Open and citrusy with seashell and flint. Medium to full body with crunchy fruit and a slightly chewiness that gives density and focus. Medium-bodied, crisp acidity.
Wine Spectator: 92 Points
Fragrant, featuring wild fennel, lemon blossoms and wet stone minerality, with a core of fresh, vibrant Meyer lemon, Honeycrisp apple and yuzu flavors. Reveals a note of litsea oil that lingers on the seamless finish, which packs plenty of polish and style.
