Note di degustazione
From grapes harvested on October 5, the 2023 Pinot Noir Mother Rock has intoxicating aromas of raspberry, pomegranate and blood orange, and it releases undertones of earth, conifer, charcuterie and rose petals as it airs in the glass. The palate is just as compelling, offering concentrated flavors that segue from berry and flowers to citrus and spice. It’s framed by soft, powdery tannins and vibrant acidity and finishes with a flourish of spicy accents. 149 cases were made, and it will be released in the fall of 2025.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Mother Rock is a dark magenta color and comes from shallow soils, giving a more mineral character to the wine, with a sanguine lift to its notes of gravelly earth, pine, black raspberries, compact berries, peppery spice, and rosemary. Medium-bodied, it has a saturating and pure feel, with ripe tannins, mouthwatering tension, pure, shining fruit, bright violet highlights, and dark mineral notes that last on the finish. Drink it over the coming 15-20 years.
The 2023 Pinot Noir Mother Rock is a blend of co-fermented Mount Eden and 777 clones. Aromatic and savory, the 2023 impress with its poise and vivid, articulate fruit. Red/purplish berry fruit, chalk, mint, lavender, sage and dried hers all take shape in the glass. Brisk acids punctuate the deep, resonant finish, with light accents from the 10% stems that linger. The Mother Rock was aged in equal parts 500L and 228L barrels.
