Smithbrook Single Vineyard pinot noir 2023

Not surprising that a vineyard originally set up to make pinot should make some pretty good pinot. Lots of red fruits, cherry and strawberry on the nose, but then there's a little underlay of truffly, mushroom-like character. The palate is completely seamless, medium-bodied, and with a touch of spice and berry working together. Tannins are fine, the oak lightly applied. Altogether, it makes a very tidy pinot noir.
