Tasting notes
The 2023 Pinot Noir Anne Katherine is one of the standouts in the range, balancing generous floral-infused aromatics with real structure and sizzling acids. Gravelly soils in the vineyard imbue the wine with real grip to support the array of crushed cherries, lavender and chalk, all set off by a kiss of French oak. The Anne Katherine is a very young wine that will benefit from time to assimilate some of the wood, but your patience will be rewarded.
