Effortless Perfection
This Pinot Noir is beautifully intense with bold sophistication. The expressions of the soil that nurture this beautiful Wine. The nose will draw you in with its complex aroma telling the tale of the environment in Occidental where the grapes are grown. Flavors of black raspberry and dark cherries burst in your mouth at the first sip segueing to subtle tastes of leather and vanilla before leading to a perfect, lingering finish.
Winemaker: Thomas Rivers Brown
Medium to deep ruby colored, the 2023 Pinot Noir needs a swirl or two before it bursts with bold notes of fresh blackberries and mulberries, giving way to nuances of wild sage, mossy tree bark, and tilled soil. Medium- to full-bodied, the palate is velvety and opulent with just enough freshness and a lingering, fragrant-earth-laced finish. - 96 points, Lisa Perrotti Brown
