Pinot Noir Block 3 2023
- 95 points -
The 2023 Block 3 Pinot Noir is powerful and positively saturated in flavor and tannin. It is dripping with it. There are notes of black cherries, mulberries, blood plum, blood orange, a hint of cocoa powder, a suggestion of sweet tobacco and roasted game. It's got it all. The tannins feel to melt into the fruit in the way that seams of fat render into wagyu. This is excellent.
À propos de Wine Advocate
The Wine Advocate was a bi-monthly publication and Robert Parker Wine Advocate continues this tradition, although articles and reviews are now published every week. The main goal is to publish regionally focused reports, which mainly offer wine reviews of new wine releases, but they also produce important vintage retrospectives and occasionally single-label verticals and producer profiles. Since 2019, Robert Parker Wine Advocate has been a wholly owned subsidiary of the Michelin Group.
