2023 Pinot Noir 'Plump' ... NEW RELEASE (so so happy... best 'Plump' yet)

REVIEW: 93 PTS - “Plenty of blueberry and cherry, spice, ginger biscuit, rosehip, slight soil-like earthiness. It’s a fleshy wine, indeed, plump, with a plenty of spice and ginger root, earthy and silty, raspberry and redcurrant, but has this wild edge and joyous character and bounce. Finish is good too, with a lot of smudgy tannin to close. What fun.” (Gary Walsh - The Wine Front)
