Laurène opens with flinty, rocky notes, fleshing out to blackberry, red cherry, and dark, spicy undertones. The palate is silky, intense, and long, with a plethora of savory accents hinting at more to come. Drink 2022-2037. —E.B.
Rich and detailed, with a deep but graceful structure, offering rose petal, raspberry, orange peel, and dusky spice flavors that build tension and polish toward fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2032. Top 100 Wines of 2023, #16. —T.F.
What We Thought: This Burgundian-styled Pinot Noir shows its French pedigree with a floral nose and a silky-smooth, medium-bodied palate of red cherry and raspberry that displays some light earthy, forest floor notes, finishing with supple but serious tannins that promise improvement in the cellar.
