An intense, layered and intriguing wine that changes a lot in the glass. Pronounced umami, dark fruit, spices, pine forest, crushed flowers and orange peel up front. Concentrated and refined with energetic acidity and verve, leading to a long, evolving finish. Courtney Humiston Staff Writer & Taster

Savory depths of cherry sauce, woodland herbs, cedar, spice box, crushed violets and lifting nuances of split pine make the 2024 Pinot Noir Maresh Vineyard impossible to ignore. Dangerously seductive, this soothes the palate with ripe red and blue fruits over a tactile core of minerality as textures of pure silk envelop the senses. Lavender tones resonate over a framework of tannins as echoes of crushed blackberry and a hint of licorice slowly fade through the wonderfully long finale. There is so much complexity here, but also sheer drinkability. Good luck keeping your hands off the 2024 as it matures. - Eric Guido
