The 2021 Richard Hermann Cuvée is a wine of great finesse and elegance, with ripe black cherry fruit aromas marked by rose petals, smoke, and peppery spice. Although the initial attack is still somewhat characterised by the oak ageing, there is the substance, fresh acidity, and firm tannic grip to sustain it. The exact location of this vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills is a closely guarded secret, but it has delivered a wine of substance and subtlety. Aged in cask (60% new) for 18 months, this wine is drinking well now and should last another 20 years.

Very expressive red with sliced strawberry and raspberry with orange peel and lemon rind. Some violets and other flowers, too. Medium-bodied with very fine tannins and a succulent and subtle fruity finish. Just a hint of chocolate and cedar. Drink after 2025.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Richard Herman Cuvée is distinctly savory, with hints of sour citrus and wild herbs complicating crushed blackberries. Silky and refined with brilliant acidity, this smooths over the palate with ripe red fruits and sweet spices, taking on a chalky mineral sensation toward the close. It leaves a bitter twang, giving way to a sweet and sour sensation, along with silty tannins, as the mouth is left watering for more. The Richard Herman Cuvée is one of the most balanced and thoroughly enjoyable reds from the 2021 Double 00 lineup.
