Patricia Green Balcombe Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

The 2022 Pinot Noir Balcombe Vineyard is a bright magenta/ruby hue and reveals notes of darker baking spices, cardamom, a fresh floral perfume, and black raspberries. It’s highly elegant on the palate, with seamless, supple tannins, ripe acidity, and harmony all the way through. A quintessential Dundee Hills red, it’s approachable now but will have a wide drinking window over the coming 10-15 years.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Balcombe Vineyard captivates with a peppery blend of wild strawberries, grilled herbs and dusty dried flowers. This sweeps across the palate with ripe red and blue fruits, accelerated by juicy acidity as a saturation of saline minerals adds contrast toward the close. A web of grippy tannins lingers as the mouth waters for more, leaving a flourish of blue and purple inner florals to resonate.
