Beaux Freres Pinot Noir The Upper Terrace 2021 - Flask Fine Wine & Whisky

Beaux Freres Pinot Noir The Upper Terrace 2021

The Upper Terrace was planted in 2000 entirely with Dijon types of Pinot Noir, just as those were becoming available in Oregon, and seems to have benefitted from that among many other lucky and/or thoughtful decisions. 

The 2021 is richly textured and quite nearly mimics a chunky strawberry cobbler with baking spice and brown butter.

Critical Acclaim

97 Jeb Dunnuck

A more transparent medium ruby, the 2021 Pinot Noir The Upper Terrace takes on a more woodsy and dark profile while remaining graceful. In the glass, it reveals notes of pine, cherry liqueur, wet asphalt, and rosemary. Medium to full-bodied, with ripe tannins and more earth tones, it has the bones to last well over the coming 10-12 years.

97 Vinous

The 2021 Pinot Noir The Upper Terrace takes its time, youthfully coiled and brooding in the glass. Coaxing reveals a decidedly savory bouquet with an earthy tinge, notes of sage and rosemary giving way to crushed wild berries and hints of cola. Silky and sleek, the 2021 flows easily across the palate, mixing a zesty citrus twang with red berry and spice depths underscored by a near-salty sensation. Tactile mineral tones mingle with fine tannins, adding grip through the finish as violet inner florals slowly fade, and the Upper Terrace sinks into a long slumber. Bury your bottles deep; this is liquid gold.

96 Wine Spectator

This seductive and compelling red is rich and full-bodied yet light on its feet. Dynamic raspberry and cherry flavors open to notes of rose petal and baking spices, with hints of forest floor, as this builds texture and complexity on the lingering finish.

If we have multiple quantities of the same item, the photo represents the general condition of all bottles under that SKU.
