Fresh and buoyant, the 2022 Pinot Noir Estate Cuvée shoots a vibrant array of sweet cherry, black raspberry and clove from the glass. Neatly structured yet enthusiastic, the stem inclusion adds lift and spiciness but doesn't distract. The 2022 finishes with a linear drive. I admire the concentration of fruit here. Vineyard sites are Pisoni, Garys' and Soberanes-a blend that really works.

Lush aromas of black cherry, root beer and cola show a definite smoky element on the nose of this estate cuvée. The palate is rich with black cherry, black plum, nutmeg and star anise flavors, making for a rich combination that ends on a long vanilla note.
