Patricia Green Pinot Noir Reserve '23

This barrel selection blend presents deep ruby hues and a kaleidoscopic nose of black cherry, violets, and freshly ground coffee. The palate is both lush and structured - flavors of plum preserves, dark chocolate, and five-spice powder cascade across velvety tannins (94 points). Aged 16 months in French oak (35% new), it finishes with incredible persistence. While approachable now thanks to the excellent 2023 vintage, this will reward 5-7 years of cellaring. Decant 1 hour for herb-crusted lamb or wild boar ragù.
