2023 Occidental Pinot Noir Bodega Ridge Vineyard
Wine Advocate 96+ Points
The 2023 Pinot Noir Bodega Ridge Vineyard is powerful and pretty. It has a medium ruby-purple color and unfurls dramatically on the nose: initial wafts of damp earth, mushroom and conifer give way to intense layers of red and black cherry, plum and pomegranate. The medium-bodied palate is concentrated yet elegant, flooding the mouth with layers of crunchy red and blue fruit. Its tannins are refined and lacy, its vibrant acidity adds tension, and it has a very long, dynamic finish. It should be very long lived in the cellar. Drink Date: 2030 - 2050.
