Winery of the Year, 2023
January 1, 2024
One thing that I recognized throughout tasting fourteen wines (multiple times) over a period of a week is that overall, they possess dynamic purity and deliver pleasure every step. Don’t sleep on the appellation wines as they don’ t take a backseat to any thing at their price point.

Unashamedly rich and opulent, Justin Harmon’s wines are also layered, beautifully nuanced, and weave in a myriad of earth and savory accents to tame all that decadent fruit. These come highly recommended.

If you haven’t heard of Justin Harmon, you should write that name down. Bravo, sir.‘
