WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The aromas of this Pinot Noir are bright and botanical, yet dignified. On the palate, it's concentrated with rich fruit buttressed by lively acidity and distinguished tannins.
TASTING NOTES:
Showing verve and expression, this opens with a burst of raspberry and guava flavors laced with crushed stone, dusky spices and forest floor as this builds complexity toward refined tannins. Drink now through 2035.

Matured in used French oak, the 2023 Pinot Noir Seven Springs Vineyard is scented of dried red cherries and cranberries plus wafts of orange, earth and dried flowers. The medium-bodied palate has a silky texture and is bursting with berry and citrus flavors. It’s balanced by mouthwatering acidity and has a long, bright finish.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Seven Springs wafts up like a basket of freshly picked wild berries mixed with minty herbs and autumnal spice. It feels round, delivering a silken wave of ripe red and blue fruits that swirl beneath an air of chalk dust and lavender. The finish is medium length with gentle chewiness yet remains incredibly fresh.
