Score 89/100 · Drink 2026-2033, Neal Martin, Aug 2025
The 2023 Pinot Noir Vrede includes 10% whole bunch and is aged for 12 months in French oak from Burgundian coopers. This has a very perfumed floral bouquet with expressive red cherry and strawberry fruit and a hint of sous-bois. You would not be able to differentiate this from a Burgundy! The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy dark berry fruit, quite spicy and peppery, with a touch of leafiness towards the finish that just attenuates slightly. Not bad, although I err towards the previous vintage.
