Aromas of plum and blackberry mingle with licorice, while subtle whole cluster characteristics intertwine with spice-driven oak nuances. The palate reveals well-layered complexity, featuring chewy yet fine tannins and a hint of fennel, culminating in a lengthy mouthfeel. This wines impressive persistence on the palate and in the glass suggests excellent aging potential promising continued development over time in bottle.
Wine Advocate Review:
The 2022 Pinot Noir Arcus Vineyard is bursting with layered, fragrant scents of rhubarb, red berry preserves, hibiscus and bergamot. The medium-bodied palate is silky and vibrant. It's bursting with bitters-laced fruit, and it has a very long, nuanced finish. It unfurls dramatically over several minutes in the glass and will benefit from 3-5 years in the cellar.
