Winemaker Notes The 2023 Block Nine Pinot is beautifully long and rich in ripe cherry and berry flavors.The aromas exhibit generous bright fruit with a mix of strawberry, violets, plum, tea,and a hint of clove. Flavorful and silky in the mouth with good body, this wine isseductive showing wild cherries and a hint of sandalwood to complete its complexfinish. The growing season was generous is length and consistent temperatures. Flavors were strong at harvest and we think 2023 will prove to be a terrific vintage.
