A medium ruby core with a vivid rose rim, the 2023 Acolytes Pinot Noir opens with beguiling aromatics most associated with the varietal—ripe cherry, muddled strawberry, sandalwood and baking spices. The palate reveals layers upon layers of ripe red and blue fruits along with a hint of cedar and white pepper. Bright on the finish, the wine closes at length with a guilty hint of baked cherry turnover.
Smashed cranberry and black plum aromas lead into hints of game and peppered charcuterie on the nose of this new project from Dave Phinney's team. The palate is ripe with strawberry flavors that are kissed in vanilla spice with extra hints of charcuterie. —M.K.
What We Thought : Light to medium-bodied with a pretty ruby color, this Pinot Noir has layers of ripe red and blue fruits…think cherries and dark plums accented with vanilla spice, pepper and hints of cedar. It’s bright and easy to drink but has lots of depth. Aged in French oak.
