2023 Winemaker's Cuvée Pinot Noir
The 2023 Cuvée Pinot Noir is a blend of our Estate finest, selected from a group of barrels composed of different clones and cooperage. After initial 14 months of aging separately, our winemaker carefully tasted and selected this special blend of barrels. Following selection, the barrels were all blended as one to make the Cuvée, and returned to barrels for 6 more months of aging.
“This is a barrel selection blend, recently bottled and still pulling itself together. You can sense the depth and admire the texture, but there remains some bottle shock that keeps it compact and tight through the finish. With a full day’s aeration it shows more of its muscular frame, fills out the black fruits and charges into a full-bodied, tannic finish with trailing notes of espresso, black tea and chocolate. 93 Points” - Paul Gregutt’s NW Wine Guide

"An earthy-meaty nose with bright red raspberries and melted candle wax joining in on the wine's aromatic fun. A sweet blackberry jam flavor is counterpointed by bursts of tangy lemon peel and woody-earthy rooibos tea. The wine's lively acidity is a treat all by itself." 91 points - Michael Alberty, Wine Enthusiast
