Bachelder Lowrey Vineyard Old Vines Pinot Noir 2023

12% alcohol. 1984, 1988, 1993, 1997 and 1999 plantings, nestled in the foot of the escarpment up against St David’s Bench. 20 months in new and used oak. Floral, fresh, silky and finely spiced. Lovely elegance here with sweet strawberry and cherry fruit. Supple, chalky and fine with redcurrant and cherry. So expressive with nice tensile tannins and acid.
