91pts Vinous
The 2023 Pinot Noir lifts from the glass with a vividly fresh mix of wild strawberries and blueberries complimented by a hint of spice. This is a round, fruit-focused effort that finds lovely balance through a core of juicy acidity. It finishes with medium length and leaves a subtle, chewy persistence that calls the taster back to the glass for more. 

Terroir
Sourced from carefully selected vineyards in a cool-climate region, this Pinot Noir benefits from moderate temperatures and extended growing seasons that promote slow, even ripening. Well-drained soils contribute to concentration and balance, while cooling influences help preserve acidity and aromatic lift.

Winemaking & Technical Notes
Crafted from 100% Pinot Noir, the grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to retain freshness and purity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, with gentle extraction to preserve the delicate nature of the variety.

The wine is aged for a short period in a combination of neutral oak and stainless steel, allowing for subtle texture enhancement while maintaining a fruit-forward, approachable style.

Tasting Notes
Light to medium ruby in color, the 2023 vintage opens with inviting aromas of red cherry, strawberry, and raspberry, accented by hints of rose petal and soft spice.

On the palate, it is smooth and balanced, with soft tannins and bright acidity. Flavors of fresh red berries and a touch of earthiness lead to a clean, refreshing finish with a subtle, lingering note of spice.
