94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The Rochioli 2013 Pinot Noir Little Hill is one of the most structured wines in the lineup. Primary fruit notes lie in the background, while the acidity and tannins are much more prominent. Ideally, readers should give the 2013 at least a year in bottle to fully come together. This is an impressive showing. The 50% new oak is nicely balanced, even at this early stage in the wine's life. Drink: 2016-2023. (Jan 2015)"

Producer notes: "The Little Hill rises just above the West Block. The soils are limited and rocky which impart a unique quality and structure to this wine that yields a rich concentrated aroma of black cherry and spice with a touch of earth. The full flavors and firm structure make this wine a great one for your cellar. This site was planted in 1985, 1994 and in 2004. Yielding 2.5 tons per acre, only twenty barrels were bottled."
