Reviews

Our 2016 Sauvignon Blanc was rated 4/5 stars, Highly Recommended, in the Santa Rosa Press Democrat's recent "Sassy Sauvignons" article. The review reads: "This tasty Sauvignon Blanc has bright notes of grapefruit, nectarine and white peach. Nice minerality. Refreshing."

Wine Enthusiast Magazine awarded our 2015 Zero New Oak Pinot Noir 93 points, plus an Editor's Choice for its fantastic price! The review reads: "This is an envelope-pushing wine that’s distinctive and untamed in the way that it combines earthy, savory and mineral aromas with complex, meaty and fruity flavors that have wonderful depth on the palate and length on the finish. The balance is spot-on due to firm acidity and lean tannins, supporting the tangle of unusual and enjoyable tastes. Zero in this case means no added yeast, no new oak and no fining or filtration. Editors’ Choice. —J.G."

The International Wine Report rates our 2014 Charles Vineyard Pinot Noir 91 points, writing: "​The Charles Vineyard Pinot Noir from Foursight is the flagship estate pinot. This is a focused and structured style with a good balance of fruit and acid. There is a touch of clove with the base of ripe red fruit on the nose and the flavor profile consists of dark Bing cherries, rich red currants and vanilla. This should continue to evolve with some short-term cellaring. (Best 2016-2020)."

Our 2014 Charles Vineyard Pinot Noir received 9/10 from Vinography.com: "Light ruby in color, this wine smells of raspberry and cherry fruit. In the mouth, raspberry and raspberry leaf flavors mix with a nice citrus peel quality and a faint tacky tannin texture that is very appealing. Notes of sweet fruit and herbs linger in the finish. ..."

The 2012 Zero New Oak Pinot Noir garnered 91 points in the recent issue of PinotFile!

Reviewer Rusty Gaffney writes: "Moderately light reddish purple color in the glass. Bright cherry is the focus of this juicy wine which is very soft and seamless on the palate. Added accents of raspberry, brown spice and sandalwood add interest. Inviting balance and harmony and highly approachable now."

The Santa Rosa Press Democrat awarded our 2012 Zero New Oak Pinot Noir 3 1/2 stars!

The review in their "Wine of the Week" column reads: "This pinot rides on its bright cherry fruit, and its crisp acidity makes the fruit even more high-toned. This pinot will be snapped up fast."

Wine Enthusiast Magazine awarded our 2011 Clone 05 Pinot Noir 90 points! The reviews reads: "Foursight's 2011 Pinot, from a very cool vintage, is savory, with mushroom and herb alongside a streak of red cherry. Light in color and texture, it's subtle yet expansive on the palate, with a peppery, juicy finish. It's a wine that can be enjoyed now, but put some away for a couple of years and the seams will come together event better.

Our 2011 Clone 05 Pinot was awarded 93 points by Wine Review Online! "...It’s very floral on the nose, with red cherry, sarsaparilla and a light hint of dry earth. Rich and forward on the palate, with a juicy entry and balanced acid carrying flavors through a finish that will get longer with further bottle aging. I’m not usually a fan of lots of new oak, but this wine handles it with style. Well done!"

PinotFile awarded the 2011 Clone 05 Pinot Noir 92 points!

"Moderately light reddish purple color in the glass. A penetrating nose flush with aromas of black pie cherries, dried herbs, brewed tea and toasty oak. Very flavorful, with impressive fullness and plushness on the palate, featuring flavors of dark red cherry and berry with a touch of cola. Soft and silky with a cherry-driven finish embellished with a deft touch of oak. I have said it many times, Pommard is my paramour."
