Score 93/100 · Drink 2025-2035, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Sep 2025

The 2023 Pinot Noir Ten Oaks was fermented with about 25% whole clusters and matured for 16 months in 50% new French oak. It has complex aromas of blackberry, pomegranate, pipe tobacco, tea leaves and spice. The medium-bodied palate offers concentrated, detailed flavors framed by dusty tannins and vibrant acidity, and it has a very long, fragrant finish. 281 cases were made.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Ten Oaks is packed with succulent dark cherry/plum fruit, cloves, new leather, rose petal and sweet oak. Sumptuous and bold, the 2023 offers tons of immediacy and plenty of stylishness.
