Tight with tension, this Pinot is slow to reveal itself. Opens to blueberry and guava flavors laced with forest floor, stony minerality and dusky spice tones as this builds structure toward broad-shouldered tannins.

Darkly floral and brooding, the 2021 Pinot Noir Résonance Vineyard slowly evolves with an earthy blend of woodland berries, underbrush and licorice. This is a lifted and pure style, with vibrant acidity enlivening tart red berries and hints of sage as savory spices form toward the close. The 2021 finishes structured and long yet remarkably fresh, as a saturation of fine-grained tannins adds a classically dry sensation.

Ripe and sumptuous, a serious and aspirational nose. Inviting aromas of red forest fruits, herbs and a hint of spices. The palate is ripe, yet still fresh. Lovely hints of reduction and bacon fat. Silky texture, hint of savoury complexity and refreshing finish.

Editor’s Choice

The kind of acidity that raises goose bumps on arms fuels a lively wine packing oodles of tart red cherries and boysenberries, along with flavors of espresso and sea salt. The aromas are equally captivating, as black cherries, glove leather and violets fill the air with each glass swirl. Try it with a bacon sandwich.
