Description
Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 94
A seductive wine in the range, the 2023 Pinot Noir San Andreas Fault is a shade deeper medium red color and offers notes of shiitake, ripe cherries, incense, forest floor, and black tea. Medium to full-bodied, it has silky tannins, savory, earthy depth, and a layered palate with beautiful freshness and detail. Drink over the next 12-15 years. Drink 2026-2041.
Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: Fresh red cherries with hints of ripe peach, earth, wet stone, anise, and mint. With air, crushed fresh strawberries emerge, along with hints of orange oil and dried straw.
- Palate: Juicy and concentrated with notes of dried goji berry, dark plum skin, and a hint of baking chocolate.
- Finish: Long and persistent, with tannins that will need a few years to resolve but ample fruit to age.
