WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This year's vintage has hints of cool mint and dark chocolate-covered blueberries, offering a rich, aromatic profile with an intriguing touch of umami. A bright yet creamy mid-palate gives it an appealing weight, while notes of black pepper and dark cherry add layers of complexity.
TASTING NOTES:
The 2023 Pinot Noir Price Family Estates draws on all of Bill Price’s vineyards. Bright acids and beams of tannin immediately confer both freshness and energy. Crushed rose petal, chalk, mint, slate and dried herbs show all the delineation of a cool, late-ripening year. This is impeccably done, but also young. Give it a year or two in bottle.
- Vinous, 94 pts.
Aromas of raspberry, mint leaves, orange zest and clove waft from the glass on the nose of this Pinot. The palate brings rich tannin and zesty acidity, with flavors of baked berry pie, fresh herb mélange and pie spice that rattle and hum through the finish.
