Pouring a ruby/magenta hue, the 2022 Pinot Noir Justice Vineyard offers concurrent but very different notes of incense, a hint of clove or cardamom spice, and wildflowers. Medium-bodied, it has a more coiled approach on the palate, with fine tannins, even, ripe acidity, and a mouthwatering finish with notes of dark crushed stones. It's certainly not lacking in structure.
Vinous

The 2022 Pinot Noir Justice Vineyard displays an intense and beguiling blend of currants, grilled herbs, crushed ashen stones and savory herbs. This is round and soothing with cooling acidity and a lifted feel throughout as ripe red berry fruits wash across the palate, giving way to a sensation of liquid stone. It leaves the cheeks puckered, tapering off with a lasting tension as silty tannins saturate.

Refined and handsomely structured, this red offers lively flavors of cherry and pomegranate accented by green tea and dusky spices. Builds tension toward fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2032. 680 cases made.
