Bold and satisfying, this Pinot Noir from one of Napa Valley's iconic vineyards demonstrates power with refinement. Dark fruits cloaked in lavish spices with a finish of pleasing earthiness.

Loads of wild berries and pine forest on the nose with a rich, concentrated palate and flavors of cassis, macerated cherries and resinous herbs. Creamy texture with velvety tannins. Full-bodied for a pinot. Drink or hold.

Matured in 45% new French oak, the 2022 Pinot Noir Hyde Vineyard has slowly unfurling scents of matchstick, pomegranate, rhubarb, damp earth and iris. The full-bodied palate is concentrated and nuanced, its deep flavors well-matched by oak spice. It’s structured by fine-grained tannins and mouthwatering acidity and has a long, spicy finish. It will benefit from time in the cellar.

Pure red fruit with notes of dark cherries and a slight touch of vanilla. Classy palate, with concentrated black fruit, ending with a silky long finish.
