Spoken West Pinot Noir 2023

Spoken West Pinot Noir 2018 is praised for its rich, plush texture and complex aromas of dark cherry, coffee, and earthy notes. It offers a smooth, full-bodied feel with flavors of ripe dark cherry, strawberry pie, and baker's chocolate. Some appreciate its refreshing tartness and stainless steel aging, while others might find it overly rich. It pairs well with summer sausage.

The 2021 Spoken West Pinot Noir presents a garnet hue that preludes its aromatic complexity. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and a hint of forest floor, intertwined with subtle notes of clove and cedar. The palate is elegantly structured, showcasing a silky texture with fine-grained tannins and a vibrant acidity that enlivens the core of dark berry fruit. A whisper of earthy minerality adds depth, leading to a lingering finish marked by delicate spice. This Pinot Noir exemplifies the finesse and balance characteristic of its cool-climate origins.
