2022 Beaux Freres 'The Beaux Freres Vineyard' Pinot Noir, Ribbon Ridge, USA (750ml)

WINEMAKER NOTES:

When the first few blocks were planted in 1988, no one could have predicted the consistent magic that would spring forth for decades to come. The old 1940s dairy pasture is now fully transformed to 25 acres of Pinot Noir vines whose forest perimeter creates a nearly mystical landscape. The 2022 wine is full of classic features: Sage, cedar, blueberry scone and strawberry compote.

TASTING NOTES:

Attractive and fresh pinot with red cherries, cranberries, minty pine-needle freshness and hints of citrus peel. Medium-bodied, bright and blooming, with delicious red-berry character. Very polished and refined. Flavorful and vivid. Drink or hold.
