Dry River Pinot Noir 2023

In their words - Botanical notes, blood, umami, and hints of brown sugar and bran. With time, the young oak will integrate seamlessly, unveiling layers of cedar-like Canadian maple, savory tobacco, walnut oil, and sage leaf. A spice box of depth and complexity awaits, echoing the essence of our earlier wines. The texture recalls our clay soils; while the minerality from stones may be subtle, it frames the wine’s length and serves as the skeleton beneath the fruit. There’s a grunt of dehydrated zest and a flourish of blossom flowers. Picture it in shades of blue rather than red—absolutely gorgeous. A true reflection of the spirit of Dry River’s beginnings, despite the challenges faced in 2023.
