Tasting notes
A completely different aromatic profile presents notes of smoky humus and briar on the much more deeply pitched nose of dark berries and exotic tea. The succulent, round and utterly delicious medium weight flavors display better mid-palate concentration as well as evident power that seems to build on the robust, balanced and built-to-age finale. This is very good but note that it's not likely to make for especially good early drinking. Stated differently, this is recommended for more so for those who intend to cellar it.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Earth pours a jewed magenta/ruby color and offers another level of purity in its ripe notes of cherry liqueur, candied flowers, mossy earth, and wet stones. By far the best wine in the range, it’s medium to full-bodied, with ripe, plush, refined tannins, seamless acidity, and with a light toasty finish. A very high-quality wine with a lovely, balanced finish, it offers a wide window for enjoyment over the coming 15 years.
Distinctly savory, the 2022 Pinot Noir Earth smolders up with a dark blend of balsamic spice, grilled herbs and steeped plums. This sweeps across the palate, soft yet lifted by cooling acidity, seeming to hover as tart red berry fruits combine with saline minerals, slowly saturating toward the close. A web of grippy tannins remains, offset by a tinge of blood orange as inner violet tones resonate.
