Deep, dark fruit and moody, spicy, savory accents on a bold, fine-grained tannic texture backed by great acidity. It is structured, concentrated, layered and intense. It becomes broader and richer with each sip and lingers in the finish, echoing black cherries and star anise. Drink now or hold.

Matured for 10 months in 30% new French oak, the 2023 Pinot Noir Laurelwood District has nuanced aromas of red and black cherries, licorice, saline, holiday spice and earth. The medium-bodied palate boasts expansive, fragrant flavors. It has an elegant frame of velvety tannins and bright acidity and a long finish with a flourish of spicy accents. 7,934 cases produced.

A blend of younger and older vines, you get red bramble fruits, mint leaves and soaring pine bough. On the palate, there's candied raspberry, there's a touch of raspberry leaf and fresh, energetic and soaring salinity. The Laurelwood bottling is an estate wine from throughout the appellation.

A bright ruby red color, the 2023 Pinot Noir Laurelwood District is shy on opening, revealing pretty notes of roses, wild strawberries, fresh herbs, and dried lavender. Fruity and pure on the palate, it lets its ripe red fruit shine through with lovely length. A total charmer to enjoy over the next 5-6 years.

Vibrant and fresh, with lively flavors of pomegranate and cherry accented with green tea tones that speed toward snappy tannins. Drink now through 2033. 7,628 cases made.
